Chords

[Intro] C Dm G F G C [Verse]
                F     G     F
We stood in the windy city

          G       C
The gypsy boy and I

                F             G
We slept on the breeze in the midnight

         F             G            C
With the rain dropping tears in our eyes
[Chorus]
    F              G      C
And who's going to be the one

   F             G            C
To say it was no good what we done?

  F             G           C      G/B  Am
I dare a man to say I'm too young, ooh, ooh

F            G           C
I'm going to try for the sun
[Verse]
                F        G
We huddled in a derelict building

    F       G              C
And when he thought I was asleep

                F             G
He put his poor coat round my shoulder

    F                G            C
And shivered there beside me in a heap
[Chorus]
    F              G      C
And who's going to be the one

   F             G            C
To say it was no good what we done?

  F             G           C      G/B  Am
I dare a man to say I'm too young, ooh, ooh

F            G           C
I'm going to try for the sun
[Instrumental] C Dm G F G C [Verse]
                        F            G
We sang and cracked the sky with our laughter

    F                G           C
Our breath turned to mist in the cold

                F               G
Our years put together count to thirty

        F             G                  C
But our eyes told the stars that we were old
[Chorus]
    F              G      C
And who's going to be the one

   F             G            C
To say it was no good what we done?

  F             G           C      G/B  Am
I dare a man to say I'm too young, ooh, ooh

F            G           C
I'm going to try for the sun
