Verse 1
G Gsus
When all is said and done, is harder than it sounds
Em7 Em
'Cus saying's only half of it, the rest is rarely found
C
And doing is what life's about, but life is not your friend
Am
When you've sucked the marrow out of life, your bones no longer bend
Chorus 1
G
So long sunshine, our days are winding down
Em
And all life's dazzling colors, simply can't be found
C
My sunshine's always been there, to help me through the night
Am
And chase away the demons, with her sparkling light

Verse 2
G
What goes up must come down, I've proved it once again
Em
I'm hoping when it does this time, it'll fall into my hand
C
'Cus when i miss that subtle sign, and it falls towards the ground
Am
It shatters when it hits the floor, but I never hear a sound
G
And when you left i kicked myself, for letting you get away
Em
And as bad as I wanted to track you down, I forced myself to stay
C
Because I never did deserve you, and you never needed me
Am
So I let you drive away because without me you'll be free
Chorus 2
G
So long sunshine, my day is winding down
Em
And all life's dazzling colors, are nowhere to be found
C
My sunshine was always here with me, to keep me warm throughout the night
Am
But now she's not, and all alone, my heart has turned to ice
Verse 3
G
And all that I can say to you, is I'm glad you finally left
Em
Because if you had stayed here, I'd have taken your last breath
C
But your leaving drove me into, depression of greater depths
Am
And sadly I have made the choice, to hurry the gift of death
Chorus 3
G
So long sunshine, my day is at an end
Em
Twists of fate, like to break my story's at it's end
C
When Black and white blur to grey, it's not a pretty sight
Am
Don't let your sunshine get away, your sunshine's worth your life.
