          G      Gsus    G           
Well, I walked out this evening 
C                        G 
Stood out in front of my house 
C                        G 
To see the day that I'm leaving 
G                    D 
My eyes have pointed South 
G           Gsus  G 
I felt like I was dreaming, 
C                       G 
I never seen the sky so red 
C                 G 
Gave me strangest feeling, 
G                       D       C 
A voice inside me said: 



D                     G                      C   Em  Am       
All my life I've been chasing SETTING SUNS, 
D                     G                            C   Em   Am 
See me running up the hill when the evening comes, 
D                         G     D     Em 
They get further away the faster I run, 
Am                  D                 
I'm getting old and tired of chasing SETTING SUNS

   G      Gsus    G 
I walked down to the ocean, 
C                        G 
Sat on the cold hard stones 
C                        G 
Saw the seabirds fishing and the sunlight glisten 
G                    D 
Down on my English home 
   G      Gsus    G 
I thought back to all the things I've seen 
C                        G 
The people I know and the places I've been 
C                        G 
City skylines and the fields of green, 
G                    D         C 
It's a wonder I needed home 


D                     G                      C   Em  Am       
All my life I've been chasing SETTING SUNS, 
D                     G                            C   Em   Am 
See me running up the hill when the evening comes, 
D                         G     D     Em 
They get further away the faster I run, 
Am                  D                 
I'm getting old and tired of chasing SETTING SUNS
