U2 - 13 There Is A Light

      [Intro]
G  Bm  A


[Verse 1]
           G                    D
And if the terrors of the night
      G                     D/F#
Come creeping into your day
        G           D                                A
And the world comes stealing children from your room

               G     Bm  A
Guard your innocence
             G     Bm  A
From hallucination
                       G      D                    E
And know that darkness always gathers around the light


[Chorus 1]
            G                       D
There is a light, you can’t always see
               A                     Bm
If there is a world, we can’t always be
               G                       D
If there is a dark, that we shouldn’t doubt
                A                      Bm  E
And there is a light, don’t let it go out


[Verse 2]
         G                  D
When the wind screams and shouts
        G                  D/F#
And the sea is a dragon’s tail
        G          D                        A
And the ship that stole your heart away sets sail

                 G  Bm  A
When all you’ve left is leaving
             G Bm   A
And all you got is grieving
             G  Bm   A
And all you know is needing
    G      D              E
Ah da-da, ah da-da-da, ah-da


[Chorus 2]
               G                       D
If there is a light, you can’t always see
               A                     Bm
If there is a world, we can’t always be
               G                       D
If there is a dark, that we shouldn’t doubt
                A                      Bm
And there is a light, don’t let it go out


[Post-Chorus]
                  G   D   A           Bm
‘Cause this is a song, a song for someone
             E
Someone like me


[Verse 3]
           G             D
I know the world is done
    G                    D/F#
But you don’t have to be
           G                 D                      D/F#
I’ve got a question for the child in you before it leaves

         G          Bm      A
Are you tough enough to be kind?
        G              Bm           A
Do you know your heart has its own mind?
          G       Bm          A
Darkness gathers around the light
      G          E
Hold on, hold on


[Chorus 3]
            G                       D
There is a light, you can’t always see
               A                     Bm
If there is a world, we can’t always be
               G                       D
If there is a dark, that we shouldn’t doubt
                A                      Bm
And there is a light, don’t let it go out


[Outro]
               G      D      A           Bm
And this is a so-o-o-ong, a song for someone
           G      D      A           Bm
This is a so-o-o-ong, a song for someone
             E
Someone like me
             E
Someone like me
             E
Someone like me
