“Chasing The Sun”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1 – Am, G, F, C)
Am G F C
Underneath a colored sky, chasing the sun
Am G F C
We packed our dreams, away we run
Am G F C
Leaving all we have behind, chasing the sun
Am G F C
Our hearts wild, free, and unconfined

(Chorus – Dm, Em, F, C)
Dm Em F C
Sunset dreams and starry eyes
Dm Em F C
Underneath the twilight skies
Dm Em F C
Chasing the sun, we are Radiant Thing
Dm Em F C
With our music, we will sing

(Verse 2 – Am, G, F, C)
Am G F C
Through the desert, through the rain, chasing the sun
Am G F C
With every mile, we are becoming one
Am G F C
Our journey is our song, our setting, the setting sun
Am G F C
In this together, we are strong

(Chorus – Dm, Em, F, C)
Dm Em F C
Sunset dreams and starry eyes
Dm Em F C
Underneath the twilight skies
Dm Em F C
Chasing the sun, we are Radiant Thing
Dm Em F C
With our stories, we will sing
