[Intro]

      (2x)
[Verse]
       Ebm             B
I find shelter in this way
      Ebm          B
Under cover, hide away
        Ebm          B
Can you hear when I say
       Ebm              B
I have never felt this way
[Chorus]
            B                        Abm
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
              Ebm                           F#
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
             B                      Abm
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
              Ebm                           F#
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
        Ebm        B
Could I be, was I there
           Ebm            B
It felt so crystal in the air
                Ebm                 B
I still want to drown whenever you leave
                Ebm           B          B
Please teach me gently how to breathe
    Ebm                             B
And I'll cross oceans like never before
           Ebm                    B
So you can feel the way I feel it too
    Ebm                      B
And I'll send images back at you
           Ebm                   B
So you can see the way I feel it too
[Chorus]
            B                       Abm
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
              Ebm                           F#
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
            B                       Abm
Maybe I had said something that was wrong
              Ebm                           F#
Can I make it better with the lights turned on
