"Sunshine" by Juliana Hatfield
The previous "Sunshine" tab has some nifty chords, but they don't sound anything like
song. Here's my interpretation of "Sunshine." I'm sure the song is more complicated, but
I have sounds good.
Capo IV - For the capo-less, the chords in the parantheses are the actual sounding
But the song sounds brighter and closer to the recording with a capo.
Verse:
Everybody gets down sometimes
You get happy with a sugar buzz
White chocolate is your favorite drug
I go underneath the covers
There are things I do not understand
When I reach out will you slap my hand?
Chorus:
I've been sleeping through my life
Now I'm waking up
A(C#)
And I want to stand in the sunshine
Verse:
I have never been ecstatic
Had a flower but it never bloomed
In the darkness of my wasted youth
It was hiding in the shadows
Learning to become invisible
Uncover me
Weeping willow
Chorus:
I've been sleeping
I've been sleeping through my life
Now I'm waking up
And I want to stand in the sunshine
Bridge:
- Em7*
– Abm7)
Ah oh ah oh
Ah oh ah oh
Verse:
Waking up
Forgotten memories of
Laughter and war
That we lived through
And all the people that I never knew
Chorus:
I've been sleeping through
My life
Now I'm waking up
And I want to stand in the sunshine
End:
I'm waking up
I want to stand in the sunshine
I'm waking up
I want to stand in the sunshine

to use it.
