Cheryl Wheeler - Beyond The Lights
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: F Dm Am Bb
F Dm Bb
Thought you'd bide your time and play your part
F C
But you were wrong dear
F Dm Bb
Somewhere down the line your lonely heart
F C Am
Could not belong here
Dm Bb
And in some frame of reason
F C
Beyond our vision
F Dm C Bb
Your love lagged behind and fell apart
Dm7 C F
Without a soul to hear
Dm Bb
On a night like this the stars don't shine
F C
And there's no moonlight
F Dm Bb
We're like you I guess, we bide our time
F C Am
Try to play our parts right
Dm Bb
And wonder where you gathered
F C F
Your angry sorrow
Dm C Bb
Through the rolling mist the scenes unwind
Dm7 C F Dm
They seem so clear to-night
BRIDGE:
Bb F C
And in my sleep you are crying still
Bb F C Dm
The way you touch your brow, hang your head
Bb F C
I never knew and I never will
Bb F A Bb
The voices haunting you, a thing that I could do
INSTRUMENTAL: Am Dm Bb Dm C Am Dm Bb Dm C F
Dm Bb
Were they in your stars, those lonely nights
F C
Tormented hours?
F Dm Bb
Something snapped your spars and slacked your lines
F C Am
And took your powers
Dm Bb
Did no one see you sinking
F C F
'Til you'd gone under?
Dm C Bb
While you slipped so far beyond the lights
Dm7 C F
Were we just watching ours?
