G#m F# Summer stretching on the grass E D#m Summer dresses pass G#m F# In the shade of a willow tree E D#m Creeps a crawling over me G#m F# Over me and over you E D#m Stuck together with Godʼs glue G#m F# Itʼs going to get stickier too E Itʼs been a long hot summer F# Letʼs get under the covers E Donʼt try too hard to think F# Donʼt think at all B Iʼm not the only one G#m Starinʼ at the sun C# Afraid of what youʼd find E If you took a look inside B Not just deaf and dumb G#m Staring at the sun C# Not the only one E Whoʼs happy to go blind G#m F# E D#m x2 G#m F# Thereʼs an insect in your ear E D#m If you scratch it wonʼt disappear G#m F# Itʼs gonna itch and burn and sting E D#m Do you want to see G#m F# what the scratching brings E D#m Waves that leave me out of reach E Breaking on your back like a beach F# Will we ever live in peace? E ʼCause those that canʼt do often have to B Those that canʼt do often have to preach G#m To the ones staring at the sun C# Afraid of what youʼd find E If you took a look inside B Not just deaf and dumb G#m Staring at the sun C# Iʼm not the only one E Whoʼs happy to go blind G#m F# Intransigence is all around E D#m Military still in town G#m F# Armour plated suits and ties E D#m Daddy just wonʼt say goodbye G#m F# Referee wonʼt blow the whistle E D#m God is good but will he listen G#m F# Iʼm nearly great E But thereʼs something Iʼm missing F# I left in the duty free E Though you never really belonged to me B Youʼre not the only one G#m Starinʼ at the sun C# Afraid of what youʼd find E If you stepped back inside B Iʼm not sucking my thumb G#m Iʼm staring at the sun C# Not the only one E Whoʼs happy to go blind
