The Sun Never Shines

G    C          G
I saw her there from afar
                 C
Her hair gray charcoal
         G            D
Takes a drag from her tar
C               D
I kissed her a smile
        G              C
But her blood red shot eye
                   D                 G
Said the sun never shines on closed doors

G                    C              G
It's been eight long years since I saw
                 C
The woman who's labored
           G         D
Since the day I was born
C                   D
These wrinkles now face
         G              C
To that cold dark damp place
                     D                G
Where the sun never shines on closed doors

              C                          G
She said the sun never shines on closed doors
   C                 G           D
I open to find only hurricanes blow
C        D               G               C
Take me away back to the green fields of May
             D                          C
Because the sun never shines on closed doors


G                   C            G
Death comes like a thief in the night
                    C
To steal while you sleep
            G          C
The soul's flickering light
C                D
Well maybe it's then
                G       C
She said, I'll see you again
                      D                 G
Because the sun never shines on closed doors

              C                          G
She said the sun never shines on closed doors
   C                 G           D
I open to find only hurricanes blow
C        D               G               C
Take me away back to the green fields of May
             D                          C
Because the sun never shines on closed doors

D                  C       G
And we all go the same way home
