Small band from Ireland, favourite song of mine by them so enjoy!
[Verse]
E B
Well, are you here because you want to or you think that you should be?
C#m A
Another social situation or is it something that you need?
E B C#m A
Yeah I know, but that's not why I'm here today.
E B
Now you're lookin' at me and I'm lookin' at you
C#m A
and between both of us we don't even have a clue.
E B C#m A
Yeah I know but it's not why I'm here today.
E B C#m A E B C#m A
[Verse]
E B C#m A B
Well, nothing is perfect and you're not alone, step it up with bass, drums, a guitar and a microphone
E B C#m A B
let's hear what you have to say.
E B
We'll sing about your love or hate, the people that you meet,
C#m A
what is happening inside of you, what happens on the street.
E B
We might just relate, whoever knows?
C#m A B
When the feeling hits you've got to let it all go.
[Chorus]
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
But if you look, if you look there's a light on.
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
Take your time, realise that your sight's gone.
[Verse]
E B C#m A B
We've had it so good, so good for so long that we have become to expect it as the norm.
E B C#m A B
Maybe it's time for our perspectives to change.
E B
But the slightest thing goes wrong you wanna run, run, run.
C#m A
You think "That's it, it's over" and you're done, done, done.
E B
Well if it's what's important, it's what's important to you
C#m A B
and you only have to answer to yourself when this is all gone.
[Chorus]
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
But if you look, if you look there's a light on.
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
Take your time, realise that your sight's gone.
[Bridge]
E
Where did the time go? Who left the light on? Where did the time go? Who left the light on?
[Bridge]
C#m
Where did the time go?
A
Who left the light on?
E
Where did the time go?
B
Who left the light on?
C#m
Where did the time go?
A
Who left the light on?
E
Where did the time go?
B
Who left the light on?
C#m
Where did the time go?
A
Who left the light on?
E
Where did the time go?
B
Who left the light on?
C#m
Where did the time go?
A
Who left the light on?
E
Where did the time go?
B
Who left the light on?
[Chorus]
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
But if you look, if you look there's a light on.
C#m B E
You'll be dead longer than you're alive.
Take your time, realise that your sight's gone.
