    Chasing The Sun

D5
The weather man said there was a pretty good chance
      G5
Of a big one coming that night
     D5
Everybody in town was locking it down
         G5
Closing shutters and finding flash lights
         D5
Oh but daddy's intuition is sharper then a knife
          G5
Said the rain don't come til the robin takes flight
         A5
And he smiled like he always does
We stayed out until the sun came up

Chorus
         D5
And we counted our blessings one by one
         G5
And the wind and the thunder never did come
         A5
We just sat there talking, laughing like fools
Nobody watching but the man in the moon
          D5
And the whole world slept that perfect night
              G5
I learned a little bout living and a lot about life
      A5
Out there in the backyard
     B5              A5   D5
Just me and him and 538 stars

     D5
Some shimmered and shined like big diamond rings
     G5
Some sank into the milky way
     D5
He told me about the one who led the three kings
        G5
To the stable on Christmas Day
    D5
He always made it easy for me to understand
           G5 
Said we're all a part of a much bigger plan
       A5
And he smiled like he always does
We stayed out until the sun came up


Chorus
       D5
And we counted our blessings one by one  
        G5
And the wind and the thunder never did come
        A5
We just sat there talking, laughing like fools
Nobody watching but the man in the moon
        D5
And the whole world slept that perfect night
            G5
I learned a little bout living and a lot about life
       A5
Out there in the backyard
     B5              A5   D5
Just me and him and 538 stars


Bridge
          B5
We watched the world
                  G5
Just the two of us
                 B5
Like it always is
                 G5
Like it always was


Chorus
       D5
And we counted our blessings one by one  
        G5
And the wind and the thunder never did come
        A5
We just sat there talking, laughing like fools
Nobody watching but the man in the moon
        D5
And the whole world slept that perfect night
            G5
I learned a little bout living and a lot about life
       A5
Out there in the backyard
     B5              A5   D5
Just me and him and 538 stars
     B5              A5   D5  
Just me and dad and 538 stars
