     move slow till the battle is won 
     and spend a day in the sun 
     get your finger on the pulse 
     your eye on the ball 
     you're right on the money 
 
(verse riff) 
 
riding on a wayward satellite 
coming into view you're out of sight 
spark a trail of fire into the night 
looking for a place to land 
 
(chorus riff) 
 
move slow till the battle is won 
and spend a day in the sun 
get your finger on the pulse 
your eye on the ball 
you're right on the money 
 
for instrumental break, use chords... D#m, B, F#, C# ending on G#m 
(these chords are played with guitar tuned flat remember so are in 
 the positions of Em, C, G, D - ending on Am - easier to remember) 
 
(chorus riff) 
 
stay low till the waiting is done 
for your day in the sun 
keep your eyes on the pin 
your hands on the wheel 
you know where you're going 
 
the battle is won 
it's a day in the sun 
and we're all gonna run 
with our fingers on the pulse 
our eyes on the ball 
we're right on the money 
 
(verse riff) 
 
a day in the sun 
a day in the sun 
sober and done 
it's a day in the sun (this is where the old and new collide) 
a day in the sun (time to shake it down from every side) 
day in the sun (justice for the boy who never lied) 
day in the sun 
it's a day in the sun 
a day in the sun 
sober and done
