[C]
[F] [C] [F]
[Dm] I [G] can't [C] light [G] no more [F] of the [C] darkness
[C] All
[F] my [Gm] pictures [F] seem to fade to black [G] and white
[C] I'm [G] [C]
[G] growing [C] tired [G] and time stands still [F] before [C] me
[C]
[F] Frozen here, on the light of my [G] life
[G]
It's too late [C] [G] to set myself [F] free from [C] the falling
I
[F] took a chance, a [C] chance to [G] help the light
But you [C] misread [G] my meaning [C] when I met you
[F] Closed the door and left me [C] blinded
Don't [G]
[C] let me turn, God got on me
[Am] I thought I'd let [C] myself [D] show it to someone else I [C] see
I just let out a fragment of your [G] lies
[C] You want to freeze
And [F] lose [Am] everything
[Dm] It's like [F] the [C] sun's going down on me
I
[F] [C] [F]
[Dm] [G] can't find [G] a [F] bright, [C] romantic line
[F] See me once, see the way [G] I feel
[C] Don't [G]
[C] discard [G] me, just [F] because you think I'm in your [C] heart
[F] But she's kept me in
[C] love
Take me off that TV, [G]
oh
[C] Don't let the sun, [Gm] [C]
get me [Am] out
I thought I'd let myself [D] show it to someone else I see
[C] I just let out a fragment [F] of your lies
[G]
[C] You want to freeze
And
[F] lose everything
[Am] [D] It's like the [F] [C] sun's going down on me
Don't
[F] [Ab] [Bb]
[C] let the sun, God got on me
I thought I'd let myself [D] show it to someone else I see
[C] I just let out a fragment [G]
of your lies
You want [C] to freeze
[F] [C] It's [D] like the [C] sun's going down on me
