[Intro]
Em G C D
[Verse]
Em G C D
So long to all my friends,
Em G C D
Every one of them met tragic ends,
Em G C D
With every passing day,
Em G C D
I'd be lying if I didn’t say,
C D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4
That I miss them all tonight
C D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4
And if they only knew what I would say
[Chorus]
Em G C D
If I could be with you tonight
Em G
I would sing you to sleep,
C D
Never let them take the light behind your eyes
Em G C D
One day, I'll lose this fight
Em G C
As we fade in the dark, just remember
D Em G C D
you will always burn as bright
[Verse]
Em G C D
Be strong, and hold my hand.
Em G C D
Time, it comes for us, you'll understand.
Em G C D
We'll say goodbye today,
Em G C D
And we're sorry how it ends this way
C D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4
If you promise not to cry
C D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4 - D - Dsus4
I will tell you just what I would say
[Chorus]
Em G C D
If I could be with you tonight
Em G
I would sing you to sleep,
C D
Never let them take the light behind your eyes
Em G C D
I'll fail and lose this fight
Em G C
Never fade in the dark, just remember
D
you will always burn as bright
C D
The light behind your eyes...
C D
the light behind your...
[Bridge]
Em D
Sometimes we must grow stronger and
C G
You can't be stronger in the dark.
Em D C D
When I'm here, no longer, you must be stronger, and
[Chorus]
Em G C D
If I could be with you tonight,
Em G
I would sing you to sleep,
C D
Never let them take the light behind your eyes.
Em G C D
I've failed and lost this fight,
Em G
Never fade in the dark,
C D
Just remember you will always burn as bright.
[Outro]
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your eyes
C D
the light behind your...
