G D Em D G
G D Em D G
[Verse 1]
G D
Woke up in another state with a pounding in my head
Em D G
Floor covered in blood and broken glass
G D
And I could drink to drown 'til I'm slow in the step like a dog who's had his day
Em D G
But by the morn' all the words that you said keep coming back
[Chorus]
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
You're my wayward star
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
My wayward star, my wayward star
[Verse 2]
G D
Running around with a lump in my throat and a stagger in my stride
Em D G
Just another time that I couldn't sink my pride
G D
And I've got lock jaw from biting my tongue 3600 miles from home
Em D G
20-20-24 hours to go
[Chorus]
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
You're my wayward star
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
My wayward star, my wayward star
[Bridge]
Em D
Talk about the time we thought that we knew what's coming next
G C
Back to the wall with the future at your steps
Em
We never had a chance at all
D
We listened to the warning calls sounding out
[Instrumental]
G D Em D G
G D Em D G
[Verse 3]
G D
I couldn't sleep with your words in my head so I thought that I'd walk it out
Em D G
I walk along with my conscience weighing me down
G D
And blacking out isn't doing me good so I knew what I had to do
Em D G
Call you up and admit that I've been a fool
[Chorus]
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
You're my wayward star
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
My wayward star, my wayward star
[Chorus]
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
You're my wayward star
G D
You're the light in my shadow
Em D G
My wayward star, my wayward star
