So it's in standard, i play it with Capo on 4 but lights uses Capo on 6.
READ THIS.
Okay so when you play C, first of all you should have a finger on the top (low E) string
at 3rd fret. But also when you play C and Em, you take a finger off at one point,
here's what they look like:
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---1----1--1--1---1--1--1--1-1-1------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---2----2--2------------2--2-2-2------------------------------------------|
A|---3----3--3--3---3--3--3--3-3-3------------------------------------------|
E|---3----3--3--3---3--3--3--3-3-3------------------------------------------|
v v v ^ ^ v ^ ^ v ^
There's how you'll play C, it also gives you an idea of what the strumming pattern looks
like most of the song.
Em is played pretty much the same way.
e|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---2----2--2------------2--2-2-2----------------------------------|
A|---2----2--2--2---2--2--2--2-2-2----------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
So there's Em. All other chords are normal.
So here's it altogether with the lyrics. Listen to the song for parts when the strumming
pattern changes.
C Em x2
C Em
Here in the stillness, the quiet place
C Em
Where I'm lying with a down turned face
Am
You come and distract me
Em (pause)
From what's coming at me
C Em
Give me something to look forward to
C Em
Truth be told, sometimes it's only you
Am
Nothing is at stake here
Em (pause)
When we are awake here
Fmaj
It's you who brings the morning
Am Em
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
G
you're the only who stuck around
Fmaj
For me when I was losing
C Em
Faith in what I thought I would be
G C
you're the only one in the dark I see
Am
The dark I see
Em
The dark I see
C Em
I know I lose my heart so easily
C Em
Trying to only show the best of me
Am
And I go into hiding
Em (pause)
Each time I stop trying
C Em
Oh, you remind me of the little things
C Em
'Til I forget the part that's troubling
Am
And I feel so much better
Em (pause)
When we are together
Fmaj
It's you who brings the morning
Am Em
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
G
you're the only who stuck around
Fmaj
For me when I was losing
C Em
Faith in what I thought I would be
G C
you're the only one in the dark I see
Am
The dark I see
Em
The dark I see
C(pause)
'Cause it's you who brings the morning
Em(pause)
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
Am(pause)
you're the only who stuck around
C(pause)
For me when I was losing
Em(pause)
Faith in what I thought I would be
C(pause)
you're the only one in the dark I see
