verse 1
A7 Dm7
See gold stars go out
Bb Am
I watched them explode down on the beach
Amaj7 Em Fmaj7 Cmaj7
And I don't know why they seem so out of reach
A7 Dm7 Bb Am
I don't even try to see my way through all of the mist
Amaj7 Em Fmaj7 Cmaj7
And I don't know why it's harder when you're miss
Chorus
Bm7 Bb
Sunday driver, slight rewinder
Bm7 Bb
Simple verdict, simpler sizes
Em A7
All I ever knew
Em A7
I learnt it from the news
