She's gone
But towards the light

(dont be put off by the strange chord names...basically they are the A form you 
play at the first fret, barred futher up,and the little finger  you put on and 
off. up one fret and so on.11 th chords are basically just the top 5 strings all 
held on one (appropriate) fret.The song begins by singing G# (no)and then G 
(night).Thats probably the hardest bit.Just mail if you need to know more.
