  			G			 D	       Em      
The light from the window is fading 
D                     C        D 
You turn on the night  
G			   D             Em 
The sound from the avenue's calling you  
D		C       D 
Open your eyes  
 
 
 
                     C 
And when you find  
                               D 
You're spending your time  
                  Em 
Wanting for words  
 
But never speak  
 
You tell yourself  
                              C 
That the things you need come slow  
D 
But inside you just don't know  
 
 
 
G    D	    Em 
My, my, my  
            C                D 
Let your bright light shine  
             G       D   Em 
Let your words live on  
            C         D 
Far beyond this life  
                 G 
Beyond this life  
 
 
G	        D 
Hold on to anything  
Em		 D	       C       D 
Everything's over and done  
            G              D 
Has the fear taken over you  
Em 
Tell me  
D		        C 
Is that what you want  
			D 
To make up your life  
 
 
               C 
Time after time  
                   D 
You're falling behind  
               Em 
Hold on to me  
Never leave  
                                                 C 
Forever be what you mean to me right now  
D 
Don't you feel better now 
 
               G       D      Em 
LET YOUR WILD WILD HEART 
               C                    D 
THAT YOU DOUGHT SOMETIMES 
      G  Em  D        
OH MY MY MY IS IT  
C		  D                G 
BECAUSE OF LIVING THIS LIFE.
