      Another great song by Vanessa Carlton.
Please let me know if there are any chords that might sound better in parts than what I have written!

If you do some fingerpicking to this song it sounds better than strumming the whole thing.

Enjoy!

C                 Am
Give her all your darkness
Fmaj7              C
Give her all your light
C              Am
Love is like a carriage
Fmaj7                 C
It's no spirit in the night


C    G  Am  G   Fmaj7
Like a wishing well
C   G  Am  G       Fmaj7
Where your pennies fell


Fmaj7                C        Am
He said it's only a matter of time
Fmaj7        C        Am 
Before your heart is mine
         Fmaj7
Have you been searching?
             C                Am
You've been looking the world over


Fmaj7      C           Am
When is it time to let go?
Fmaj7      C            Am
And is it then that you know?
        Fmaj7                 C                   Am
All the peace that we've been bringing out of each other
             Fmaj7
Out of each other

C               Am       
Flowing like a circuit
Fmaj7                   C
Through a curse of neon signs
C             Am
Writing her a letter
Fmaj7                    C
What's the curve of your desire

C        G   Am   G       Fmaj7
When the cycle starts its run
C       G     Am   G     Fmaj7
And we become what we become



Fmaj7                C        Am
He said it's only a matter of time
Fmaj7        C        Am 
Before your heart is mine
         Fmaj7
Have you been searching?
             C                Am
You've been looking the world over


Fmaj7      C           Am
When is it time to let go?
Fmaj7      C            Am
And is it then that you know?
        Fmaj7                 C                   Am
All the peace that we've been bringing out of each other
             Fmaj7
Out of each other


Fmaj7      C           Am
When is it time to let go?
Fmaj7      C            Am
And is it then that you know?
        Fmaj7                 C                   Am
All the peace that we've been bringing out of each other
             Fmaj7
Out of each other


C                 Am
Give her all your darkness
Fmaj7              C
Give her all your light
C              Am
Love is like a carriage
Fmaj7                 C
It's no spirit in the night
