[Verse]A
Standin on the bank of a river
A
Waiting for the sun to shine
D
Mornins come and gone
D
I ain't seen nothin But
A
big ol clouds a passin by
D
Kinda like the day the towers fell
D
Man that still rapes my mind Got
A
nothin left to do But
D
look to the heavens And
E A
pray for sudden light
[Chorus] E
Come on daylight
A
Come on daylight
E
Come on daylight
D A
I need the sun to run
[Verse]A
Lyin on the bank of that river
A
Wishin it was all a dream
D
I gotta get up an get myself movin
A
Before the man come to catch me
D
Prayin that they don't find me here
D
Knowin that they're bound to catch up
A
Nowhere left to run
D
Nowhere left to hide
E A
Guess I'll just have to fess up
[Chorus] E
Come on daylight
A
Come on daylight
E
Come on daylight
D A
I need the sun to run
A D E A
[Verse]A
Now I'm standin in the county courthouse
A
Facin bout 20 to life
D
I wish I'd never caught em
D
My best friend
A
A lyin there with my wife
D
I had that pistol loaded yeah
D
And never even thought twice
A
Pulled back the hammer
D
Squeezed on the trigger
E A
And took my best friends life
[Chorus/Outro] E
No more daylight
A
No more daylight
E
No more daylight
D A
I know my life is done
E
No more daylight
D A
