Chase this Light
CAPO 1!!!
Standard tuning
Verse 1:
       C               G
I'm a suspect, I'm a traitor,
   Am           F         C
I'm only here in body visiting.
       C            G
Yellow faces in the distance screams,
     Am            F
"The beauty is in what isn't said,"
     C
I'm rising to my feet.
Chorus:
          Am        F              C
Because tonight the world turned to me.
              Am    F            C
Because right now I don't dare to breathe.
            Am  F        C
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive
                  G                     Am
And somewhere for us to find tonight
        F             C
chase this light with me.
Verse 2:
    C           G
My just so, my last call,
Am               F              C
My life is yours in your gifted hands.
          C              G
Confetti rainfall in a quiet street.
        Am                   F
These things I've found are special now,
      C
The knot is in my reach.
Chorus:
           Am        F              C
Because tonight the world turned to me.
              Am    F             C
Because right now I don't dare to breathe.
            Am  F        C
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive
                  G
And somewhere for us to find,
  Am            F              C
Tonight, chase this light with me.
Bridge:
  Am            F
A movie still, photograph,
   C                          G
Through a martyr's eyes I can see.
              Am                                  F
I've seen the best of love, the best of hate, the best reward is earned,
                 C                        G  F
And I've paid for every single word I ever said.
Verse 3:
         C                G
Confetti rainfall in the quiet street.
    Am            F
The beauty is in what you make it,
    C
So get up on your feet.
Chorus:
          Am        F               C
Because tonight the world turned to me.
              Am    F              C
Because right now I don't dare to breathe.
            Am  F        C
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive
                  G
And somewhere for us to find,
  Am            F              C
Tonight, chase this light with me.
            Am  F        C
Oh, babe, I know, it's alive
                  G
