Capo on 1st
Standard tuning
C Am
I cannot recall when I've felt like this
F G
It's been a long, old time if I ever did.
C Am
So if I act strange, I'm hoping you'll forgive
F
I've got your light
G C Am F G
I've got your light in my eyes.
On some distant moon I lie on my back
For a glimpse of blue 'fore it's gone to black
It used to be like this, now it's not like that
I've got your light
I've got your light in my eyes.
Every heart on earth is dark half the time
Oh I try and try but I can't read your mind.
Sometimes I can't see, that don't mean I'm blind
It's just your light
It's just your light in my eyes, in my eyes, in my eyes...
