Sitting Nicely In The Sun

from Jasmine Dreams, Volume #1 (2016) by Dan Frechette

about

This is one of the first songs I wrote in 1990. I'll never forget sitting in my basement room in Pinawa with the sun shining on me through the window.
This is still one of my favourite songs I've ever written, 1370 songs later.

lyrics

Sitting Nicely In The Sun - Dan Frechette © 1990

G-Em-C-G

(G) See the (Em) sun shining on a (C.) cloudy (G) day
(G) Feel the (Em) wind whisper in your (C.) ear (G)
(G) See some (Em) clouds racing (C.) in the (G) sky
(C.) man, this is gonna be a great (G) year

(G) Hear the (Em) people whisper your (C.) name (G)
(G) speaking (Em) softy about your (C.) fame (G);
(G) ask the (Em) stars up (C.) above (G)
(C.) why is this world so full of (G) love?

(C.) Tell me no reasons
I (Em) only want to know
I'm (D) not against it
I'm (C.) only telling you (G) so

(C.) The earth to me is a place of (G) love
(C.) the peace around a lonely (G) star
(C.) That's what I'm thinking (G) of
A (C.) glimpse of pictures from afar (G)

(G) Birds are (Em) circling in the (C.) air (G)
(G) fish are (Em) swimming in the (C.) sea (G)
(G) sitting (Em) alone at the (C.) top of the (G) stairs
(C.) what does all this have to mean? (G)

(C.) Everybody outside is having (G) fun
(C.) I have these questions still (G) undone
(C.) I've just found out I'm not the only (G) one
(C.) Sitting nicely in the (G) sun.
(C.) Sitting nicely in the (G) sun.(C.)
(C.) Sitting nicely in the (G) sun.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏 ... more
