ooooooh
_ _ _ _ oooooooh _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ there's a place in the darkness
that I used to cling to
it presses harsh hope against time
_ _ in the [Bb] absence from martyrs
there's the presence of these
who only _ [Gm] want to [F] rob you blind
They steal _ away [Bb] _ _ [F] any sense of peace
[Bb] Though I'm a king, I'm a king on [F] my _ knees
And I know they are [Bb] wrong when they [F] say I'm [Gm] strong
Now the [Eb] _ darkness [F] _ covers _
[Bb] _ me
_ So [F] turn on the light, _ reveal all the [Bb] _
glory
[F] I _ am out of _ _ [Bb] breath
So [F] tear on my wreath, _ _ [Bb] knowing in _ meekness
[Gm] I have a kingdom to [F] gain
_ Where there [Bb] is peace and love in the light, in the light
Oh, _ I am not _ [Eb] afraid _ to let [Bb] your light shine [F] bright in my [Bb]
life, in my life
Oh, _ I, I, _ [Eb] I, _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ I, I, I, I _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _
Decoes from my [Bb] past have [C] owned more of my [Dm] soul than I thought I had given [F] away
_ They _
[Bb] linger in _ closets [F] and under my bed and in [Bb] pictures less proudly _ _ [F] displayed
A _ great _ _ [Bb] _ _ [F] black cloud has been half squandered, so pallid and thin
_ On [Bb] my head in shame and [F] refused to take [Gm] blame for [Eb] the darkness, I know [F] I'd better [Bb] win _ _ _
So [F] turn on the light, _ _
[Bb] reveal all the glory
_ [F]
I _ _ am out of breath _
[Bb] _ _ _ [F] So tear on my _ _
_ _ [Bb] wreath, knowing in _ meekness
[Gm] I have a kingdom to [F] _
gain
_ Where [Bb] there is peace and [F] love in the [Bb] light, in the light
Oh, _ I am not [Eb]
afraid _ _ to let your [Bb] light shine [F] bright in my [Eb] life, in my [Bb] life
Oh, I, _ I, _
[Eb] I, _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
I, I, I, I, _ [Eb] I _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ Can you hear? _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
Can you hear _ _ _ _ _ me? _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Can you hear _ _ _ _ _ me? _ _
Can you _ hear _ _ _ me?
_ _ Can you _ hear _ _ _ _ me?
_ Can you _ hear _
_ _ [F] me? _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] Well, I've never been much for a [C] very new [D] soul in the [Bb] presence of any [F] man
_ _ I'd rather keep [Bb] to myself all [F] safe and secure [Gm]
in the arms of a [Bb] sinner I [F] am
_ _ _ Could [Bb] it be?
_ _ _ _ [F] I'm sure it depends [Bb] by the crimson _ grace on [F] her hand
_ _ _ Like a lamp on a hill, Lord, I pray in your [Gm] will to [Eb] reveal all of [F] you that I [Bb] can _ _ _
[F] So turn on _ _ the [Eb] light, reveal all the [Bb] glory
_ [F] I am _ _ out of [Eb] breath
_ _ [Bb] _
So [F] tear on my _ wreath, [Bb] knowing in _ meekness
[Gm] I have a kingdom to [F] _ _
gain
Where there [Bb] is peace and [F] love in the [Eb] light, in the [Bb] light
Oh, _ I _ am not [Eb] afraid _ _ to let [Bb] your light [F] shine bright in [Bb] my life, in my life
Oh, I, _ I, _ [Eb]
I, _ _ _ [Bb] _ I, I, I, I, [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ I, _ I
The past that I used to cling to preps this harsh hope against time
