D
You can shape the dying day
Into something better
We can hold the ghosts at bay
Build something together
F#m                    Bm
You can see the beauty in
                      G
A dirty rain-lashed street
Or a plan that goes nowhere
F#m                          Bm
You can make this town feel kind
                       G
Though the buildings cry
But you don't belong, don't belong

Chorus:
A                  D        A/C#
You can chase the night away
            F#m      G
Guess I'm trying to say
You heal me like the light of day
     A                D     A/C#
You can keep me searching on
          F#m        G
You say it won't be long
'Til all the pain you felt is gone
    D
It won't be long

Sorry I'm distracted by
Things that you can't help with
Aloneness you can't recognise
Or know unless you've felt it
Show me how to love again
Let the branches bend
Life's rolling on, rolling on

Chorus

           G
'Til your mind stops reeling
    Bm
It won't be long
         G
'Til regret surrenders
     F#m           G
It's old and the scars start healing

 A                             G
Falling off a cliff and still wondering
Where the ground has gone
 A
Something in your faith
            G
It keeps me searching on, searching on

Chorus

           F#m       G
Guess I'm trying to say
                               D
You heal me like the light of day

You can keep me searching on
You say it won't be long
'Til all the pain we felt is gone
It won't be long
