[Strophe]
G                 D/G 
All day permanent red, 
    C/G         G 
the glaze on my eyes. 
                  D/G 
When I heard your voice, 
    C/G                     G 
the distance caught me by surprise again. 
      D/G      C/G               G 
And I know you claim that you're alright; 
    C             G 
but fix your eyes on me, 
                   C 
I guess I'm all you have 
                   G             D 
and I swear you'll see the dawn again.
[Refrain]
       C                          G 
Well I know I had it all on the line, 
               Em                               D 
but don't just sit with folded hands and become blind. 
       Am                            G 
'Cause even when there is no star in sight, 
Em                                   D 
you'll always be my only guiding light.
[Strophe]
G            D/G 
Relate to my youth, 
         C/G            G 
well I'm still in awe of you. 
                  D/G 
Discover some new truth, 
             C/G                   G 
and that was always wrapped around you. 
G         D/G              C/G   G 
Don't just slip away in the night, 
G         D/G       C/G           G 
dont just hurl your words from on high.
[Refrain]
       C                        G 
Well I know I had it all on the line, 
               Em                               D 
but don't just sit with folded hands and become blind. 
       Am                            G 
'Cause even when there is no star in sight, 
       Em                        D 
you'll always be my only guiding light.
[Pont]
Am                           G 
    If we come back and were broken, 
Am                Em 
    unworthy and ashamed, 
Am                         G 
    give us something to believe in, 
Am                            D     Am   G   Em   D 
    and you know well go your way
[Refrain]
         C                        G 
'Cause I know I had it all on the line, 
               Em                               D 
but don't just sit with folded hands and become blind. 
       Am                            G 
'Cause even when there is no star in sight, 
       Em                        D 
you'll always be my only guiding light.  
         C                        G 
'Cause I know I had it all on the line, 
               Em                               D 
but don't just sit with folded hands and become blind. 
       Am                            G 
'Cause even when there is no star in sight, 
       Em                        D 
you'll always be my only guiding light.
