           G                                      C
And in the middle of the night, I may watch you go
                 G                                                C
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I'll have grown
                 F              Am           C  G F
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown
          F  G              F   C
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine

             C         F        C
Stretch out my life and pick the seams out
             C          F        G        Am  
Take what you like, but close my ears and eyes
  F        C      F G      F C            
Watch me crumble over and over 

             C         F          C
I have done wrong, so build your tower
 C                   F      G          Am 
But call me home and I will build a throne
    F        C        F G      F C            
And wash my eyes out never again

Chorus:

C                       F 
But love the one you hold
                  G 
And I'll be your goal
               Am 
To have and to hold
                   C
A lover of the light

Verse: 

C                   F         C
Skin too tight and eyes like marbles
C                    F       G     Am
You spin me high so watch me as I glide
F         C       F G      F C            
Before I tumble homeward homeward

C                     F       C
I know I've tried, I was not stable
C                   F       G        Am
Flawed my pride, I miss my sanguine eyes
    F       C           F G           F C            
So hold my hands up, breathe in an' breathe out 

Chorus:
  
C                     F
But love the one you hold
                  G
And I'll be your goal
                Am
To have and to hold
                C
A lover of the light

C Am 

  C         G                                    C
And in the middle of the night, I may watch you go
                 G                                             C
There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I'll have grown
               
                 F              Am           C   G   F
There'll be no comfort in the shade of the shadows thrown
               F            Am           C      G  F
You may not trust the promises of the change I'll show
          F  G              F   C
But I'll be yours if you'll be mine

 
C Am

And I will be your goal
               Am
To have and to hold
                 C
A lover of the light

So love the one you hold
                   G
And I will be your goal
                Am
To have and to hold
                C
A lover of the light
