D                               F#m
And all the guests were guessing there
  D                       F#m
Fake tender smile blinded many a doubtful eye
  D                      F#m
It's almost to much to bear
  D                                       A
Give a careless rose a thorn for her to needle all her life

[Chorus]
    G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
        G        D        A
Oh the sun refused to shine

[Verse]
  D                       F#m
Oh the one you chose was wrong
 D                           F#m
He will only brush away and paint your dreams all blue
 D                    F#m
I know it won't be long
 D                                    A
A bridal flower crushed 'neath his unloving shoe

[Chorus]
    G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
        G        D        A
Oh the sun refused to shine

[Verse]
   D                          F#m
You hold the lies you sold yourself
 D                                        F#m
Still you clutch an ancient relic a holy fragment of the truth
 D                               F#m
There's a burning need for the wealth
 D                                       A
Of a settled life to calm the spirit of unsettled youth

[Chorus]
  G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
  G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
  G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
  G        D        A
The sun refused to shine
  G        D        A
Yes the sun refused to shine
