A            C#m
Shake me down,
A                   C#m
Not a lot of people left around,
A            C#m
Who knows now,
A             C#m
Softly laying on the ground,
A     C#m
Ooooh
A                   C#m
Not a lot of people left around,
A     C#m
Ooooh
A     C#m
Ooooh


[Verse 1]

A         C#m
In my life, I have seen,
F#m             Bm
 People walk into the sea
A           C#m
 Just to find memories,
F#m                 Bm
 Plagued by constant misery,
  A        C#m
    Their eyes cast
 F#m       Bm
down, Fixed upon the
    A            C#m
ground,   Their eyes cast
 F#m    Bm
down


[Chorus]

E
I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun


[Verse 2 - Riff 1]

A           C#m
Shake me down,
A                C#m
Cut my hair on a silver cloud,
A        C#m
Broken sound,
A                    C#m
Softly laying on the ground,
A     C#m
Ooooh
A                C#m
Not a lot people left around,
A     C#m
Ooooh
A     C#m
Ooooh


[Verse 2 - Chords]

A           C#m
In my past, bittersweet,
F#m               Bm
There's no love between the sheets,
A                C#m
Taste the blood, broken dreams,
F#m           Bm
Lonely times indeed,
A        C#m
    With eyes cast
  F#m     Bm
down, Fixed upon the
    A       C#m
ground,     eyes cast
 F#m    Bm
down


[Chorus]

E
I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun

[Interlude]

E               G#
Walk around the corner,
A
Never saw it coming still,
E               G#
I try to make a move,

It almost stopped me from belief,

I don't wanna know the future,
A
But I'm like rolling thunder

Even on a cloudy day,

Even on a cloudy day,
D                A
Even on a cloudy day,
E                 F#m
Even on a cloudy day,
D                A
Even on a cloudy day

I'll keep my eyes fixed on the-
E
I'll keep my eyes fixed on the sun
