G       Em 
Now you were my shining light 
             C               G 
When there wasn't much light to be found 
G                  Em 
Yeah the darkness had covered me 
    C            D 
And emptiness was about 
G        Em 
You had such a smile on you 
   C                G 
It brightened up my day 
G                Em 
And I would walk to the ends of this earth 
C             G 
Just to hear you say 
 
Chorus -------------
              C   G 
Say that it's alright 
         C            G 
Lay your head down on me 
           C     G 
Close your eyes babe 
    C            G 
And set yourself free 
             C   G 
I bet you're tired 
    C         G 
Of being so alone 
          C      G 
Open your heart babe 
        C             G 
Let my love take you home
--------------------
 
Now I was a driftin' 
Out in the night 
You were called to me 
With your shining light 
The waves of yesterday 
Well you made them all lie down 
And you pulled me into you 
So I wouldn't drown 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Em           C                   G 
You are my shining light in the darkness 
Em          C                      G  D 
You are my hope at the end of the day 
Em           C           G       
You are my everything I must confess 
         C                        D 
And now baby just let me hear you say 
 
(Chorus)
