              Intro 
(D             A D 
 
A D        A          G) 
 
A D                 D 
I'm lost in the light 
A D                 D 
I pray for the night 
A D           A          G 
To take me, to take me to 
A D                D 
After so many words 
A D                 D 
Still nothing's heard 
A D           A            G 
Don't know what we should do 
       D         A          G        A         D 
So if someone can see me now, let them see you 
 
A D                     D 
It was my greatest thrill 
A D                    D 
But we just stood still 
A D             A                           G 
You let me hold your hand 'til I had my fill 
 
A D                D 
Even countin' sheep 
A D                D 
Don't help me sleep 
A D                A                       G 
I just toss and turn right there beside you 
       D        A           G        A              D 
So if someone could help me now, they'd help you too. 
                 G 
They'd help you to 
               A 
See you through 
                  D                   G 
All the hard things we've all gotta do 
                       G 
Cause this life is long 
                             A 
And so you wouldn't be wrong 
 
          D          A          G 
Bein' free, leavin' me on my own 
 
 
A D              D 
And I held my own 
A D                       D 
Still I rattled your bones 
A D                    A                     G 
I said some awful things and I take them back 
 
A D                  D 
If we would try again 
A D               D 
Just remember when 
A D                 A                        G 
Before we were lovers, I swear we were friends 
 
      D          A         G       A           D 
So if someone could see me now let them see you 
 
                G 
Let them see you 
               A 
See you through 
                D                     G 
All the hard things we've all gotta do 
                       G 
'Cause this life is long 
                        A 
So you wouldn't be wrong 
 
D              A                G 
Bein' free here with me on my own
