                                              I       see

verse 1 

Am                              F             C     Csus2 
Twinkling in the window, it’s a sparkle on the snow 
Am                       F       C        Csus2 
Hovering to see if I can see you come and go 
  Am                       F             C    Csus2 
I came down the dark road, arms under my coat 
       Am               F        C  Csus2    
And my breath is nearly freezing my eyes  
C      F  C  Csus2  Am 
Closed 

    C                          F              C       Csus2

verse 2 

    Am                           F            C     Csus2 
The car that dropped me off, why did it turn around 
    Am                F        C    Csus2 
And watch me walk the long way down 
         Am           F              C   Csus2 
Past the glow of town like a setting sun 
  Am                 F       C     Csus2  
Horizons alive with electric light and  
C   F  C  Csus2  Am 
Hum 

                         F             C                        Am   G 
Were you standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up? 
    F              C                    Am   
And held me to the end of the long line 
                        F              C                 Am     G 
Have you got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck? 
          F             C        G         Am 
Well this light of your life has drawn the blind 


verse 3 

          Am                                   F            C     Csus2 
There was something about the handwriting that made me keep every scrap 
Am                               F           C      Csus2 
Something about the way the eyes looked away at the last 
          Am                       F         C   Csus2 
I've kept something burning on the sill real low 
    Am               F    
But now I don't know 

         C               F             C                        Am   G 
Were you standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up? 
    F              C                     Am   
And held me to the end of the long line 
                        F              C                 Am     G 
Have you got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck? 
          F             C        G         Am 
Well this light of your life has drawn the blind 

verse 4 

    Am                       F            C 
The wind from the river will swirl like a scream 
    Am                     F  C 
And wrap itself 'round you 
         Am               F              C 
There may be a friend somewhere down the road 
         Am               F       C    
But from here you have to walk it out  
 C    F  C  Csus2  Am 
Alone 

                               F             C                        Am   G 
Cause you were standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up 
    F              C                      Am   
And held me to the end of your long line 
                          F              C                 Am     G 
And you've got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck 
         F             C         F         C 
And this light of your life will not shine twice 
     F     C   G         Am 
This light has drawn the blind
