Verse 1
Am
All along the street
G
They're holding signs that say
That I am lost
F E Am
And that I do not know the way
I asked the rock
G
Sitting in a shade of grey
I asked the rock
F E Am
He didn't have a thing to say
Chorus:
Am G C
But you are the only light I see
D Am
You are the only light I need
G C
When everybody else is sleeping
D Am
You come along and help me breathe
Verse 2
When I was a stone
No one knew that I was there
I'd sing my song and
No one ever really cared
I went to the mountain
Face all covered in tears
I wept but
Mountain didn't seem to hear
Chorus:
So you are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You come along and help me breathe
You are the only light I see (x2)
Verse 3
I love you
'Till the mountain starts to cry
I love you
If I don't know the reason why
I love you
Until I do not know my name
I ask you
Wouldn't you have done the same
Chorus
Oh you are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You come along and help me breathe
You are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You bring the magic over me
You are the only light I see (x4)
Am
All along the street
G
They're holding signs that say

F E Am
And that I do not know the way
I asked the rock

Sitting in a shade of grey
I asked the rock
F E Am
He didn't have a thing to say
Chorus:
Am G C
But you are the only light I see
D Am
You are the only light I need
G C
When everybody else is sleeping
D Am
You come along and help me breathe

So you are the only light I see
You are the only light I need

You are the only light I see
You are the only light I need

You bring the magic over me
You are the only light I see (x4)
