Intro:  Verse riff x2

 

Verse 1 (w/verse riff):

What else should I be
All apologies
What else should I say
Everyone is gay
What else could I write
I don't have the right
What else should I be
All apologies

Chorus 1 (w/folk strum):

G
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun

        A
I'm married
Buried

 

Verse 2:

I wish I was like you
Easily amused
Find my nest of salt
Everything’s my fault
I'll take all the blame
Aqua seafoam shame
Sunburn with freezeburn
Choking on the ashes of an enemy

Chorus 2 (w/folk strum):

G
In the sun
In the sun I feel as one
In the sun
In the sun

        A
I'm married
Buried
Married
Buried,  Yeah yeah yeah yeah
