heres the chords for the acoustic version of stare in the sun
(off the "all thats left" single).
tuned down a full step
in the key of Am (C)
INTRO
Am C G F
VERSE 1
Am
i sit here clutching useless lists

and keys for doors that don't exist
G F
i crack my teeth on pearls
Am

C G
just show me what it means to me in this world
F
yea in this world
CHORUS

Am C
i'll stare straight into the sun
G F
and i won't close my eyes
'til i understand or go blind
VERSE 2 (same chords as VERSE 1)
i see the parts but not the whole
i study saints and scholars both
no perfect plan unfurls
do i trust my heart or just my mind
why is truth so hard to find in this world
yeah in this world
SAME CHORDS AS CHORUS 1
'cause i am due for a miracle
i'm waiting for a sign
i'll stare straight into the sun
and i won't close my eyes
'til i understand or go blind
BRIDGE (Dm F C Em)
Dm
i know that there's a point I've missed
F
a shrine or stone i haven't kissed
C
a scar that never graced my wrist
Em
a mirror that hasn't met my fist
but i can't help feeling that i'm
SAME CHORDS AS CHORUS 1
due for a miracle
i'm waiting for a sign
i'll stare straight into the sun
and i won't close my eyes

| I think this song is just about a guy that's confused in his life. He just wakes up one morning and looks around and wonders where the hell he is. He searches and searches and searches looking. but he just can't find it. He's confused and thought about commiting suicide and had an angry past or something of that sort (a scar that never graced my wrist a mirror that hasn't met my fist) But anyways. these lyrics are amazing. they are definietly some of the best ive ever heard. | |

| this song is pretty straightforward...hes trying to find a religious or spiritual path that makes sense to him...this is like the theme song to my life...im always searching for something to believe in...and im a person who examines every path and way of thinking...anyways the song is pretty catchy too... | |

| nomatter how hard he tries, he cant make it in life, something always goes wrong. he feels broken and is giving up his will to try. he has seen things that have deeply hurt him and he wants to know why the world is this way or never see any pain again, "stare into the sun, till i understand, or go blind" | |
