Title:
“One Too Many Sunsets”

Full song lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[G]I’ve seen the sun set [D]down, on a [Em]lonely town [C]
[G]Driven by your memory, [D]just can’t stick [Em]around [C]
[G]In these empty streets, [D]I hear an [Em]echoing sound [C]
[G]Your laughter once filled, now [D]nowhere to be [Em]found [C]

(Chorus)
[G]One too many sunsets, [D]without you by my [Em]side [C]
[G]The night’s getting colder, [D]missing your [Em]smile [C]
[G]One too many sunsets, [D]since you said good[Em]bye [C]
[G]I’m driving towards the horizon, [D]chasing the [Em]morning light [C]

(Verse 2)
[G]Your words still linger, [D]in the desert [Em]wind [C]
[G]Your touch, a phantom, [D]skin against my [Em]skin [C]
[G]I’m tracing the roads, [D]where we once [Em]been [C]
[G]But all I find are shadows, [D]and what might have [Em]been [C]

(Repeat Chorus)
