Setting Suns by John Mark McMillan
Setting Suns
Capo:no capo
All you do is play G D Em throughout.
At the end of the chorus, "Is how good you are to me", it sounds like there's
a
different chord. Maybe Am7. But you can just play the Em and go back to G and
it sounds fine.
Lyrics:
G D
When everything's said and done
Em
Your all I really have
G D
In the midst of these setting suns
Em
The city lights at best
G D
Are portraits of my friends
Em
But they don't make amends
G D Em
For this ridiculous mess
G D
So I will float on
Em
Every word you said
G D
When the water of my ghosts
Em
They rise above my head
G D
And I will stand up on your back
Em
In the middle of this sea
G D
When collectors of my debts
Em
They come to sink their teeth
G D Em
And its all I can think about now
G D Em
Is how good you are to me
[chords same as first part:
This body is a hole
My flesh one shallow grave
I am six feet below myself
And at my best
I still deserve to die
But I'll be glorified
In this ridiculous mess
So I will float on
Every word you said
When the water of my ghosts
They rise above my head
And I will stand up on your back
In the middle of this sea
When collectors of my debts
They come to sink there teeth
And its all I can think about now
Is how good you are to me

So I will float on every word You said
When the waters of my ghosts, they rise above my head
And I will stand up on Your back in the middle of this sea
