verse 1 
D   A 
Another photograph to wrestle in my head 
A 
Another sleepless night on concrete featherbed 
A 
These thoughts of you like bullets to my soul 
Bm                                 D   A 
I've got to find a way to get you home 

D                          A 
I'll find a way to get you here 
A 
If it takes my fleeting breath 
D 
Another sunrise hits the ground 
A 
And it's a dark lonely sight 
Em6                         A 
Lightyears away I hope you know 
A 
There is somebody searching 
D                       A 
For the way to get you here 
D 
I will get you here 

verse 2 
D   A 
Throw the clocks away and run out to the street 
A 
We'll fly to distant clouds where it's just you and me 
A 
A day will come when all of this is gone 
Bm                              D 
You've got to find a way to believe 

D                          A 
I'll find a way to get you here 
A 
If it takes my fleeting breath 
D 
Another sunrise hits the ground 
A 
And it's a dark lonely sight

Lightyears away I hope you know

There is somebody searching

For the way to get you here

I will get you here

Em6                  D           Em6           D 
Close your eyes and dream of a better day with me 
Em6                D                 G             A 
As angels hold you tight, may you sleep in peace tonight 
G           D       A 
So dream, dream, dream my child 
G                        D 
Hear the whisperings of hope 
G                          D 
It's a song that you can sing, as you sleep in peace tonight 

D                          A 
I'll find a way to get you here 
A 
If it takes my fleeting breath 
D 
Another sunrise hits the ground 
A 
And it's a dark lonely sight 
Em6                         A 
Lightyears away I hope you know 
A 
There is somebody searching 
D                       A 
For the way to get you here 
D 
I will get you here
