[Intro]
Cadd9  Cadd9  D  Em X2

[Verse 1]
Cadd9 
You got a face not spoiled by beauty
D/F#                    Em
I have some scars from where I’ve been
Cadd9
You’ve got eyes that can see right through me
D/F#                     Em
You’re not afraid of anything they’ve seen

[Pre-Chorus 1]
      Cadd9         G          D/F#         Em
I was told that I would feel nothing the first time
        Cadd9           G                D/F#           Em
I don't know how these cuts heal, but in you I found a rhyme

[Chorus 1]
              Cadd9                  G
If there is a light you can't always see
               D/F#                  Em     
And there is a world we can't always be
              Cadd9                  G
If there is a dark that we shouldn't doubt
               D/F#                  Em
And there is a light don't let it go out

              Cadd9   G    D/F#           Em
And this is a So-o-o-ong a s-o-ong for someone
          Cadd9   G    D           Em
This is a So-o-o-ong a s-o-ong for someone

[Verse 2]
Cadd9
You let me into a conversation
D/F#                Em
A conversation only we could make
Cadd9
You break and enter my imagination
D/F#                      Em
Whatever's in there it's yours to take

[Pre-Chorus 2]
      Cadd9    G     D/F#          Em
I was told I’d feel nothing the first time
         Cadd9    G       D/F#              Em
You were slow to heal but this could be the night

[Chorus 2]
              Cadd9                  G
If there is a light you can't always see
               D/F#                  Em     
And there is a world we can't always be
              Cadd9               G
If there is a dark within and without
                D/F#                 Em
And there is a light don't let it go out

              Cadd9   G    D/F#         Em
And this is a So-o-o-ong a s-o-ong for someone
          Cadd9   G         D/F#         Em
This is a So-o-o-ong this a s-o-ong for someone

Cadd9  G      Em        A   
Yeah - eah   Yeah Yeah  Yeah
Cadd9  G      Em         A   
Yeah - eah   Yeah Yeah  Yeah

[Outro]
          Cadd9   G                D/F#       Em 
And I'm a long long way from your hill of calvary
          Cadd9   G              D/F#                  Em
And I'm a long way from where I was and where I need to be

               Cadd9                  G
If there is a light you can't always see
                D/F#                 Em     
And there is a world we can't always be
               Cadd9                  G
If there is a kiss I stole from your mouth
                     
               D/F#                 Em
And there is a light don't let it go out
