[Intro]
Am   F   Dm   F

[Verse 1]
 Am                                                F
Close my eyes and drift into the silence
                          Dm
Barely see the ultraviolet
                                         F
Slipped and fell into the deep end
Am                                                        F
Oh, the sidewalk shimmer just like diamonds
                                         Dm
All the empty words were flying
                                                  F
Well, the heart was low, but I never was alone

I never was alone

[Chorus]
Am                 C          Dm       F
     I've been running for so long
Dm             F
All that's left is skin and bones
Dm                     F
Close my eyes, fight to carry on
Am                        C               Dm       F
      Sometimes it makes no sense at all
         Dm                 F
If I stumble, will I fall?
      Dm                      F
If I fall, I'll tuck and roll
F
Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home

Let the love-light guide me home

[Verse 2]
Am                                             F
One step fades and falls into another
                                  Dm
I'm not getting any further
                                       F
Left you feeling like an alien
Am                                                      F
All the shining sidewalks, they were lying
                                       Dm
Lost myself while I was hiding
                                               F
And the heart was low, but I never was alone

I never was alone

[Chorus]
Am               C            Dm      F
    I've been running for so long
Dm           F
All that's left is skin and bones
Dm                       F
Close my eyes, fight to carry on
Am                      C               Dm         F
     Sometimes it makes no sense at all
       Dm                 F
If I stumble, will I fall?
      Dm                       F
If I fall, I'll tuck and roll
F
Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home

Let the love-light guide me home

[Instrumental]
Am   F   Dm   F

[Bridge]
Dm                                   F
Hearts are empty almost all the time
Dm                                 F
Blind devising ways to lead the blind
       Dm                                   F
And it seems as if there's no end in sight
Dm                                             F
I don't wanna be there when it all goes down
Dm                                                 A5            B5
But if I gotta be there, don't let me hit the ground
         C5           D5
Can I hit the ground?

[Chorus]
Am                 C            Dm      F
      I've been running for so long
Dm           F
All that's left is skin and bones
Dm                      F
Close my eyes, fight to carry on
Am                      C               Dm         F
     Sometimes it makes no sense at all
      Dm                   F
If I stumble, will I fall?
      Dm                       F
If I fall, I'll tuck and roll
F
Close my eyes and let the love-light guide me home

Let the love-light guide me home, let the love-light guide you on
