[Intro]
[G] [Cadd2/G] [C/G]
[Verse 1]
[G] The light was sh[Gsus4]ining in my [C]eyes before I cl[G/B]osed them
[Am] And all the dre[C]ams I had the n[Am]ight before came b[D]ack
[G] The faces th[Gsus4]at I'd seen lo[C]oked so f[G/B]amiliar
[Am] But they're just str[C]angers - I h[Am]aven't met them y[D]et[D#dim]
[Pre-Cborus 1]
I know the m[Em]orning is w[C]iser than the [G]evening[D#dim]
I know that [Em]wrong and right can so[C]metimes look the s[G]ame[Gmaj7/F#] [Em] [D#dim]
So many th[Em]ings I know,[C] but they don't h[G]elp me
[Am] Each day I [C]open up my [Am]eyes and start ag[D]ain
[Cborus 1]
[G] The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
[Verse 2]
[G] So many st[Gsus4]ories,[C] I want to t[G/B]ell you
[Am] I wish that [C]I could show you the m[Am]any things I've s[D]een
[G] You and your d[Gsus4]addy, [C] you both look like p[G/B]oets
[Am] Your eyes are [C]open wide while y[Am]ou are in a dre[D]am[D#dim]
[PreCborus 2]
I know the m[Em]orning is w[C]iser than the n[G]ight time[D#dim]
I know there's n[Em]othing wrong, I sh[C]ouldn't feel so d[G]own[Gmaj7/F#] [Em] [D#dim]
So many th[Em]ings I know,[C] but they don't h[G]elp me
[Am] Each day I [C]open up my [Am]eyes to look arou[D]nd
[Cborus 2]
[G] The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in
[Bridge]
My [G]eyes [Gmaj7/F#]are cl[Em]osed n[Em7/D]ow
[Cadd9] Count the st[G/B]ars ins[Am]ide your m[D]ind
C[G]ount the br[Gmaj7/F#]eaths, c[Em]ount h[Em7/D]eartbeats
[Cadd9] Count the s[G/B]ounds [Am]of life[D] [D]
[Verse 3]
[G] The light [Gsus4]was shining in my [C]eyes before I cl[G/B]osed them
[Am] And all the d[C]reams I had the ni[Am]ght before were g[D]one
[G] The faces th[Gsus4]at I'd seen looked[C] so fam[G/B]iliar
[Am] But I forg[C]ot them all wh[Am]en I saw the s[D]un[D#dim]
[PreCborus 3]
I know the m[Em]orning is w[C]iser than the e[G]vening[Gmaj7/F#] [Em]
I know that [C]all of life just happens in b[D]etween
[G] So many th[Gsus4]ings I know,[C] but they don't h[G/B]elp me
[Am] Each day I [C]open up my [Am]eyes and it begin[D]s
[Cborus 1]
[G] The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
The light comes sh[C]ining in my [G]eyes
