Am7      G              F                 C
We were walking, arm in arm through Barcelona
Am7                     G               F     C
There we people singing opera in the streets
Am7    G                 F                C
And I kissed you by the fountain in the square
Am7           G                 F      C
A part of my heart will always be there

Chorus:
F            G
Just wanted you to know
    Dm            F
The times I feel helpless
 C           G
Nothing but dark skies
        Dm              F
On the nights that seem endless
 C            G         Dm F
You are like daylight, babe

 C            G         Dm F
You are like daylight, babe
 C          G
You are my daylight

We were watching as the waves came rolling in
You said you were happy here
You were wondering if we'd met when were kids
Did I think that we would've been friends?

Chorus:
Well, of course I do
The times I feel helpless
Nothing but dark skies
On the nights that seem endless
You are like daylight, babe

(Ooh-ooh) You are like daylight, babe
(Ooh-ooh) You are my daylight

Chorus:
Just wanted you to know
The times I feel helpless
Nothing but dark skies
On the nights that seem endless
You are like daylight
You're the one that can reach me
When you look into my eyes
No matter how lost I might be
You are like daylight, babe

(Ooh-ooh) You are like daylight, babe
(Ooh-ooh) You are my daylight
