this is correct. If u have ne coments just e-mail me at Lostprophets021@aol.com

Intro: Am,G,F,Em x3

Am                G 
Summer stretching on the grass 
F              Em
Summer dresses pass
Am           G
In the shade of a willow tree
F                 Em
Creeps a crawling over me
Am          G 
Over me and over you 
F              Em     
Stuck together with God`s glue
Am                G
It`s going to get stickier too 
F
It`s been a long hot summer 
F(fret 3)
Let`s get under the covers
F
Don`t try too hard to think 
F(fret 3)
Don`t think at all 
                 C
I`m not the only one 
               Am 
Starin` at the sun 
                     F 
Afraid of what you`d find 
                   G  
If you took a look inside 
                  C
Not just deaf and dumb 
               Am
Staring at the sun 
             F
Not the only one 
                  G
Who`s happy to go blind 

Am, D x2


(Just continue with the same chords through out the song)

There`s an insect in your ear 
If you scratch it won`t disappear 
It`s gonna itch and burn and sting 
Do you want to see what the scratching brings 
Waves that leave me out of reach 
Breaking on your back like a beach 
Will we ever live in peace? 
`Cause those that can`t do often have to 
Those that can`t do often have to preach 

To the ones staring at the sun 
Afraid of what you`d find 
If you took a look inside 
Not just deaf and dumb 
Staring at the sun 
I`m not the only one 
Who`s happy to go blind 

Intransigence is all around 
Military still in town 
Armour plated suits and ties 
Daddy just won`t say goodbye 
Referee won`t blow the whistle 
God is good but will he listen 
I`m nearly great 
But there`s something I`m missing 
I left in the duty free 
Though you never really belonged to me 

You`re not the only one 
Starin` at the sun 
Afraid of what you`d find 
If you stepped back inside 
I`m not sucking my thumb 
I`m staring at the sun 
Not the only one 
Who`s happy to go blind 

F     F(fret 3)
Ah ah I 
Ah ah I 
Ah ah I 
Ah ah I
