Intro: E B A (x3) 

verse 1 

E 
When the light is in your face 
                      A 
As the sun is coming down 
                         E 
When you're standing in one place 
                    A 
As the world goes 'round 

Pre-Chorus 

A                         E 
Any other lover would be pained to discover 
    C#m                         F#m 
You underneath the cover of a story that was told 
A                          E 
Anyone worth holding your heart 
               B 
Would let you go 

          F#m    A 
Where the light takes you 
          F#m       A 
Where the new day breaks you 
          F#m    A 
Where the music makes you 
          D A 
What you are 

INTERLUDE 

E B A x3 

verse 2 

E 
I wish you could've held on 
                    A 
And waited for the day 
                       E 
The light will always find you 
                 A 
It's never far away 

Pre-Chorus 

A                         E 
Any other lover would be pained to discover 
    C#m                         F#m 
You underneath the cover of a story that was told 
A                          E 
Anyone worth holding your heart 
               B 
Would let you go 

          F#m    A 
Where the light takes you 
          F#m       A 
Where the new day breaks you 
          F#m    A 
Where the music makes you 
          D B 
What you are 

BRIDGE 

        A 
And I know  
        C       E 
it has taken a long time 
          B                           
"It's a choice,"  
        D             F#m 
said a voice that was not mine
