Verse 1
[A9] [D] [G]
I would shun the light, share in evening's cool and quiet
[C7] [B7]
Who would trade that hum of night
[D] [G] [Em]
For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[A9]

Betray the moon as acolyte
[C7] [B7]
On first and fierce affirming sight
[D] [G] [Em]
Of sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

I had been lost to you sunlight
[A7] [Em]
And flew like a moth to you, sunlight, oh, sunlight

Oh, your love is sunlight
[G] [Em]
Oh, but it is sunlight

All the tales the same
[D] [G]
Told before and told again
[C7] [B7]
A soul that’s born in cold and rain
[D] [G] [Em]
Knows sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[A9]
And at last can grant a name
[D] [G]
To a buried and a burning flame

As love and its decisive pain

Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight

Each day, you'd rise with me
[D] [G]
Know that I would gladly be
[C7] [B7]
The Icarus to your certainty

Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[A9]
Strap the wings to me

Death trap clad happily

With wax melted, I'd meet the sea

Under sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
