[Verse 1]
Well, EbI guess the darkest nFights will hide their Bbstars
but Eblately your cloudy skFies are the crowded Bbbars
and EbI’ve been squinting at the Fdistance,
waiting Bbfor the light to break,Gm  
Ebworried, dear, about Fhow long that might Bbtake
[Verse 2]
EbGod’s been closing wiFndows and slamming Bbdoors
The Ebrain keeps leaking inF, what the hell was Bbthat house for?
EbLove came at so Fhigh a cost that Bbyou could not aFffordGm  
so now you’re thEbrowing up your hands and fFeet are kicking up a Bbstorm
[Pre-Chorus]
But Ebthere’s still lBbight in your eFyes
It’s smEball, but it Bbstill sFhines
[Chorus]
BbThere is noGmthing in the Ebpast that you belBbong to
and Gmeven if the Ebmemories come and Bbfind you
Well, Gmit is not their Ebtask to try and resCmcue what’s lF7eft,
what’s left of your jBboy
[Instrumental]
Gm Eb Bb    Gm
[Verse 3]
EbWhat if the valley’s Ftoo wide to hold your Bbdreams?
EbWhat if your heart has gFrown too dull to glBbeam?
EbWhat if it’s ancFestral; it’s rBbunning Fthrough your Gmgenes?
It’s Eball too much and now you’re Fbursting at the seamsBb  
[Pre-Chorus]
But Ebthere’s still lBbight in your eFyes
It’s faEbint, but it Bbstill sFhines
[Chorus]
BbThere is noGmthing in the Ebpast that you belBbong to
