That other version's pretty wonky... This should be marginally better.
THE OFFSPRING - STARING AT THE SUN
ALBUM: AMERICANA (1998)
Intro: Dm
Dm Baby Flife is like a Gride on a Cfreeway*A,
Dm Dodgin' Fbullets while you're Gtryin' to Cfind your way;A
Dm EveryFone's around but Gno-one does a Cdamn thing -
It Fbrings me down, but BbI won't Clet 'em
If I Dmseem bleak,F well Gyou'd be Ccorrect,
And if AI Dmdon't speak,F it's 'cos I Gcan't disconCnect,
But AI Dmwon't be,F burn-ed Gby the reCflection
of Athe Dmfire Fin your Geyes
as you're Astaring at the Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun. F G
As you're Astaring at the Dmsun.
FASTER [repeat x2]:
Dm When I Fran I didn't Gfeel like a Crunaway,A
Dm When I esFcaped I didn't Gfeel like I'd Cgot away;A
Dm There's more to Fliving than Gonly surCviving -
Maybe FI'm not there, but BbI'm still Ctryin'
Though you Dmhear me,F I don't think Gthat you reClate:
My will Ais Dmsomething,F that you Gcan't confisCcate,
So AforDmgive me,F but I Gwon't be fruCstrated
by Athe Dmfire Fin your Geyes
as you're Astaring at the Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah...C A
Dm (N.C.) C
Baby life is like a ride on a freeway*,
Dm (N.C.) C C A
Dodgin' bullets while you're tryin' to find your way;
Dm (N.C.) C C
Everyone's around but no-one does a damn thing -
It Fbrings me down, but BbI won't Clet 'em
If I Dmseem bleak,F well Gyou'd be Ccorrect,
And if AI Dmdon't speak,F it's 'cos I Gcan't disconCnect,
But AI Dmwon't be,F burn-ed Gby the reCflection
of Athe Dmfire Fin your Geyes
as you're Astaring at the Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun, wo-Fo-o-Goah,
as you're Cstaring at Athe Dmsun. F G
As you're Astaring at the Dmsun!
*= I always sing "rat on a freeway" because it's funnier...
