Acoustic version of Stare in the Sun (off the "All That's Left" single) Tuned down a full step. [Intro] Am C G F [Verse 1]
  Am
I sit here clutching useless lists

    C
and keys for doors that don't exist

  G                      F
I crack my teeth on pearls

  Am
I tear into the history

     C                                  G
just show me what it means to me in this world

            F
yeah, in this world
[Chorus]
            Am        C
'cause I am due for a miracle

    G               F
I'm waiting for a sign

     Am               C
I'll stare straight into the sun

    G                 F
and I won't close my eyes

     F
'til I understand or go blind
[Instrumental] Am C G F [Verse 2]
  Am
I see the parts but not the whole

  C
I study saints and scholars both

   G                 F
no perfect plan unfurls

     Am
do I trust my heart or just my mind

C                                G
why is truth so hard to find in this world

             F
yeah, in this world
[Chorus]
            Am        C
'cause I am due for a miracle

    G               F
I'm waiting for a sign

     Am               C
I'll stare straight into the sun

    G                 F
and I won't close my eyes

     F
'til I understand or go blind
[Bridge] (Dm F C Am) (Dm F C Em)
  Dm
I know that there's a point I've missed

  F
a shrine or stone I haven't kissed

  C
a scar that never graced my wrist

  Am                        Dm
a mirror that hasn't met my fist

            F
but I can't help feeling that I'm
[Chorus]
Am        C
due for a miracle

    G               F
I'm waiting for a sign

     Am               C
I'll stare straight into the sun

    G                 F
and I won't close my eyes

     F
'til I understand or go blind
