Intro: D Bm G A 
 
D                 Bm 
Before you I was a church 
 
G                    A 
Without a nickel or a prayer 
 
D                  Bm 
Before you I was a soul 
 
G                                A 
Without a lighter, held up in the air 
 
Pre Chorus 
 
 D 
Don't know if I ever could thank you 
 
Bm 
Near enough for the love since we met 
 
G                      A 
For every sunrise and sunset 
 
Chorus 
 
                 D 
We light up the night 
                 Bm 
 
The spark, it will rise 
 
                 G 
It's more than enough 
 
                    A 
To steal the dark from the skies 
 
                   D 
We light up the night 
 
                 Bm 
We're forever young 
 
           G                            A 
You know true stars shine brighter than warm 
 
                D 
We light up the night 
 
 
D                      Bm 
Light up, light up the night 
 
Bm                      G 
Light up, light up the night 
 
G                        A 
Light up, light up the night 
 
A 
Light up, light up 
 
 
D                 Bm 
Before you I was apart 
 
G                    A 
With no glitter on the floor 
 
D                  Bm 
Before you I was less calm 
 
G 
With no hope 
 
A 
Kissin' me out the door 
 
Pre Chorus 
 
 D 
You're a dream I was always dreaming 
 
Bm 
Can't believe I'm finally awake 
 
G                      A 
Holding you til the day break 
 
             Play Chorus 2 times 
                                         {End}
