Intro:  D � G � D � G 
D                     G			     D
You're a star, he says, you've bottled your grace
G				      D
It's a laugh to watch you try to keep pace
G				    D          G
With the steps we made together one night with beer
 	        D    A      G  D
And you called me�   Johnny Sunrise
D              G               D
Johnny Sunrise walks away from me�
G					   D
Takes his time and he takes me too seriously
G                            D
Locks his thoughts away in a box he built
G	       D  A      G   D
While I was gone� Johnny Sunrise
CHORUS
    Bm	         F#m	       G         D
But remember the bite of those November nights when we rode out
   Em			      D			  Asus4�A	
To fight for the light of our lives to be turned on�
Bm		          F#m
Sweat and perfume and new bread as the moon faded
G              D		       C (hold�) 	    D (hold�)       
Stumbling home spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a hurry
         C (hold�)       D (hold�)
But then we weren't in a hurry�
 
V2
D                    G                           D
Our faces are mirrors lines and scars that we've earned
G					      D
All the classes we missed all the lessons we learned
G					 D
All the roads that we took that took us apart
	   G		       D    A         G            D     
Now you're sitting there saying,    "Let's go back to the start."
              D                 G          D
And he says, "Lose that luggage let it all go��  
        G                                                    D
Job you got job you lost what it cost all the things you now know
	           
 
G     					        D                     
All the girls you once had and the man that you are
            G                   D
Let's climb off this world again
A         G       D
And climb into my car
A           G       D
Let's climb into my car
A     G          D (keep strumming�D�)
Drive away in my car
CHORUS
    Bm	         F#m	       G        D
And remember the bite of those November nights when we rode out
   Em		              D			  Asus4�A	
To fight for the light of our lives to be turned on�
Bm			  F#m
Sweat and perfume and new bread as the moon faded
G	        D		       C 	           
Stumbling home spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a million
                         C                        D
years, but then, we didn't have a million years, million years, 
million years�
Bm			  F#m
Sweat and perfume and new bread as the moon faded
G	       D		       C(hold�) 	    D          
Stumbling home spilling out stories we wouldn't forget in a hurry
             
C (hold�)                D  (stay on D to fade)
But then we weren't in a hurry�
