Bm         A           G        F#m
Sunny came home to her favorite room 
Bm        A           D          A 
Sunny sat down in the kitchen
E              A          G      F#m 
She opened her book and a box of tools
Em         Bm          G        
Sunny came home with a mission
         D       A      Em    G      
She says days go by I'm hypnotized
    D       A    Em  
I'm walking on a wire 
  D        A        G       Bm    E   A  
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
         Gmaj7
Into the fire
Bm         A           G       F#m
Sunny came home with a list of names
Bm         A          D         A
She didn't believe in transcendence
G                   A         Bm          F#m
And it's time for a few small repairs she said
Em         Bm          G
Sunny came home with a vengeance
         D       A      Em         G
She says days go by and don't know why
    D       A    Em
I'm walking on a wire
  D        A        G       Bm    E    A
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind
         Gmaj7
Into the fire
F#m              G
Get the kids and bring a sweater.
F#m             G
Dry is good and wind is better
F#m                   G              
Count the years, you always knew it
F#m                G            
Strike a match, go on and do it
   D       A      Em       G
Oh days go by I'm hypnotized
    D       A   Em
I'm walking on a wire 
  D        A        G       Bm    D 
I close my eyes and fly out of my mind 
   A     Em
Into the fire
D         A       Em       G
Light the sky and hold on tight
    D        A       Em   
The world is burning down 
          D     A      G       Bm    E    A
She's out there on her own and she's alright 
           Gmaj7          E
Sunny came home 
           Bm
Sunny came home
