A        E                  D F#
I'm getting closer to the fact
        Bm    E         A
I've turned my back, on silly things
A        E                    D F#
I'm walking down that lonely road
     Bm   E
And my heavy load,
               A
I didn't bother to bring it
 D      Dm        A
The Sun shines down on me
 D      Dm          A
I feel like I deserve it.
 D       Dm
& the sun shines down.

I'm hiding out where you can't see
Behind a wall, in the back of the room
I'm crawling slowly through the dark
and feeling for a punch-line
The Sun shines down on me
I want to feel like I deserve it.
and the sun shines down.

I'm walking down that empty road
But it ain't empty now,
Because I'm on it
I'm getting closer to a hope
That I can carry
and take home with me.
The Sun shines down on me
I feel like I have to earn it.
and the sun shines down.
