Am                         F 
You see the truth is that I am simply useless
    C                         G
At finding the right words to say
          Am                   F
And your fingers are frozen to notes you have chosen
C                     G
Letting the tune slip away
              Dm
But when you shine so bright
          F                G
I can feel our eyes collide
Soon you'll realise

C
Why waste time
                       Dm
Your heartstrings are caught in mine
             F
So pull me onto your side
               Am
And we will be alright

You might
G
Be my lifelight
C
Just hold still
              Dm
Hang by your window sill
                F
And all of this music will

Still be there
Am
In sight
You might
G
Be my Lifelight

Am F C G

Am                      F     
Covered in caution and waves of distortion
     C                   G
Your movements give you away
    Am                          F
And I'll bring the roses write poetry and proses
     C                        G
And prise you apart from your day

              Dm       
Cos when you shine so bright
          F                G
I can feel our eyes collide
Soon you'll realise

C
Why waste time
                       Dm
Your heartstrings are caught in mine
             F
So pull me onto your side
               Am
And we will be alright

You might
G
Be my lifelight
C
Just hold still
              Dm
Hang by your window sill
                F
And all of this music will

Still be there
Am
In sight
You might

Dm                             F
  Cos I'm caught on this carousel
                           B
  Too tounge tied to ever tell
                              F
  Just circling round in the dark

C
Why waste time
                       Dm
Your heartstrings are caught in mine
             F
So pull me onto your side
               Am
And we will be alright

You might
G
Be my lifelight
C
Just hold still
              Dm
Hang by your window sill
                F
And all of this music will

Still be there

You might
