C 
Light as a bird i could fly 

That's the way i always feel 
                      F 
When your love melts away my fears 
     C 
For i had been tired, troubled mind 

Mistakes i wanted to hide 
                 F 
How could i be a light for you 


Am         F        G         Em7 
Light as a bird for you have shown 
C 
All my weaknesses you've known 
Am                G     C 
Still you pick me up saying 
         Am        C 
Together we can do it keep running 
    F       C               G 
And so the light i want to show 
Em7                    C         ( F ) 
Is how you have loved me perfect 


C 
Light as a bird i could fly 

That's the way i always feel 
                 Am7 
When your love melts away my fears 
     C           Dm7 
For you have revived 

Breathed new life 
                        C 
To the dreams you put inside 

Dreams you wired 
        F 
Deep inside my mind 


     C              G      C 
For when i see you look at me 

I remember who i was made to be 
        Am        G         Em 
Fear and failure lose their power 
             Am7        C 
For in your eyes i see that you're still proud 
                            G 
And so the light i want to show 
         C                       ( F ) 
Is how you have loved me perfect.
