They were all in love with dyin’, they were doin' it in Texas
F F G G
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain

Then he lost his leg in Dallas he was dancing’ with a train

I don’t mind the sun sometimes
F F G G
The images it shows
G G
I can taste you on my lips
F F G G
And smell you in my clothes

Cinnamon and sugary
F F G G
And softly spoken lies
G G
You never know just how you look
F F G G
Through other people’s eyes


[Bridge]

F F G G
Some will die in hot pursuit and fiery auto crashes
F F G G
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
F F G G
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
F F G G
That is pouring like an avalanche, com in’ down the mountain


[Chorus]

G G
I don’t mind the sun sometimes
F F G G
The images it shows
G G
I can taste you on my lips
F F G G
And smell you in my clothes
G G
Cinnamon and sugary
F F G G
And softly spoken lies
G G
You never know just how you look
F F G G
Through other people’s eyes


In Reverse:

(I don’t mind the sun sometimes
F F G G
The images it shows

You never know just how you look
F F G G
Through other people’s eyes)


[Verse 2]

F F G G
Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
F F G G
Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus
F F G G
Then there was an ever-present football player rapist
F F G G
They were all in love with dyin’, they were doin' it in Texas
F F G G
Pauly caught a bullet, but it only hit his leg
F F G G
Well it should’ve been a better shot and got him in the head
F F G G
They were all in love with dyin’, they were drink in’ from a fountain
F F G G
That was pouring like an avalanche, com in’ down the mountain


[Chorus]

G G
I don’t mind the sun sometimes
F F G G
The images it shows
G G
I can taste you on my lips
F F G G
And smell you in my clothes
G G
Cinnamon and sugary
F F G G
And softly spoken lies
G G
You never know just how you look
F F G G
Through other people’s eyes
