G                         C
I've been on the run for half my life
D                       Em
Tryna tame the sun and raise the night
G                     C                  D
Over mountains and across the fields of gold
       Em
On my own
G                             C
A man needs something he can hold onto
D                              Em
But that means nothing if he's scared to choose
G                         C
If there's one thing that I can't lose
D
It's your love, alone

Chorus:
G                  C
Save me, save me, can't you hear me calling?
        D                   Em
I keep waiting, waiting for you to come
and change me
G                  C
Take me, take me, down to the river
D                     Em
Wash me in the water again
C        G   D
All the way down
Em
Back to where my heart is
C        G   D
All the way round
Em
Back to where we started

There's a gravity in your kiss
And galaxies in your fingertips
There's a fire burning on your lips
While my soul's runnin' cold

Chorus

Ooh
G                    C                      D
I'm tryna find your light, tryna find your light
                 Em                     G
Tryna find your light, tryna find your light
                 C                      D
Tryna find your light, tryna find your light
                     Em                     G
I'm tryna find your light, tryna find your light
                     C                          D
I'm tryna find your light, I'm tryna find your light
                     Em                         G
I'm tryna find your light, I'm tryna find your light
                     C                          D
I'm tryna find your light, I'm tryna find your light
                     Em
I'm tryna find your light, I'm tryna find your light
