intro over 8 times: Em Em D My hotel is blue Em D beautiful ocean blue G D paint melting off the walls Em D and I can hardly breathe G D young men nod against the palms Em D A turn blue and fail to breathe A A6 ---------------2- -—---—2—-3--5--2- 2—-4-—2—-2--2--2- 2—-2-—2—-2--2--2- 0—-0-—0—-0--0--0- ----------------- but I came here to see ........... so, G D Give up the sun, give up the sun G D one hundred thousand times G D I live just once to hear you say G D give up the sun, give up the sun Down along the beachline gulls pick at bones and glass Old Jew remembers Broadway among the tires and glass I try to remember Broadway I had a friend up there at last and she can't help me now ..... so, Give up the sun, give up the sun one hundred thousand times I live just once to hear you say give up the sun, give up the sun give up the sun, give up the sun instrumental over 4 times: Em then guitar solo over: 4x G D (like chorus) Bm A Out there, the sea makes love Bm A waves pinwheel to the bay G D Oh, don't you leave me here Em D there's ghosts and rooms of pain there's a storm out on the sea tonight and bodies filled with pain palm wind across the sea tonight black with whirling pain alone against the docks tonight nobody knows my name and I can't go back again ..... so, Give up the sun, give up the sun... (chorus consisting of 5 lines like the 2nd will be repeated 6x, at the end more guitar than vocals, in between each refrain 2 times Em)
