[Intro]
F C F C
[Verse 1]
It is the cFalm wCater
In the Gmiddle of an Dmanxious seaF  C  
Where heavy cFlouds Cpart and the sGunrise sCtarts
A fCire in the dDmeepest part Fof me
So I let Amgo and in this Gmoment I cFan breatheC  
[Chorus]
The clCumsy start of aDmdolescence
The gClue that mends our bDmroken remnants
An oCverwhelming sDmense of reverence
It's a glAmimpse of light in a Gmine of gCold
A slCiver lining sDmpilling over
The rCumour of bDmuried treasure
The stCarting line of Dman adventure
It's a glAmimpse of light in a mGine of Cgold
[Bridge]
It's an aftFerglow, it's an eGcho
Still rCinging out in sDmpite of meF  
It's the faint Foutline of thGe divine
In the Chiding place of Dmmy peripheryF  
So I let Amgo and in this mGoment, I caFn breathe
I Ccan breathe
[Instrumental]

Am G C
[Chorus]
The sCetting sun through open wDmindows
The hConouring of eDmvery shadow
A graCtitude for aDmll that follows
It's a gAmlimpse of light in a mGine of Cgold
The cCountless stars we're slDmeeping under
It's the Cbrightest sparks that Dmwe remember
When oCur eyes are closed, we sDmtill see embers
A glAmimpse of light in a Gmine of gCold
[Outro]
It's a gAmlimpse of light in Gmine of goCld

It is the calm water

In the middle of an anxious sea

Where heavy clouds part and the sunrise starts

C Dm F

A fire in the deepest part of me

Am G F C

So I let go and in this moment I can breathe

The clumsy start of adolescence

The glue that mends our broken remnants

An overwhelming sense of reverence

A sliver lining spilling over

The rumour of buried treasure

The starting line of an adventure

Am G C

It's a glimpse of light in a mine of gold

[Bridge]

F G

It's an afterglow, it's an echo

C Dm F

Still ringing out in spite of me

It's the faint outline of the divine

In the hiding place of my periphery

Am G F

So I let go and in this moment, I can breathe

I can breathe

[Instrumental]

The setting sun through open windows

The honouring of every shadow

A gratitude for all that follows

The countless stars we're sleeping under

C Dm

It's the brightest sparks that we remember

When our eyes are closed, we still see embers

A glimpse of light in a mine of gold

[Outro]

Am G C

It's a glimpse of light in mine of gold
