Jimmy Cliff - I See The Light chords
Start Jamming...
From the moments of my youth
I've [Bm] been searching for the truth
[C] To my being and all [D] that seemed like [G] mystery
So while turning in the dark
There [Bm] a spot of light did spark
[C] turning everything [D] into
reality
[G] [C]
Now I see the [D] light, yes I see the [Em] light, can I see [C] the light?
[D] Shining bright, [C] [Em] [D] it's [G] alright
For the balance of my life
I'll [Bm] cling to this guiding light
As [C] the essence of my [D] natural [G] creation
And as myself I grow to be
[Bm] The thoughts and fears gone from me
[C] Crystallized by [D] the light of my [G] salvation
[C] Because I [D] see the light, yes I [Em] see the [C]
[D] [C] [Em] [D]
light, [G] it's alright
[F] Yes [C] there were times when [G] I was lonely
[F] Took [C] me a woman [G] partner
And [C] she will be my [G] one and only
[Em]
[A] She's [C] number one, [D] forever
She's my [G] one and only
Now what seemed like mystery
[Bm] Were just untold history
[C] And the secrets [D] that's been known only [G] to gods
And as I sit and reminisce
[Bm] I get peaceful joy and bliss
[C] From the [D] memory of what could [G] be the odds
[C] Because I [D] see the light, yes I [E] see the light
[C]
[D] [C] [E] [D]
[C] Yes I see the [D] [Em] [C]
[D] [C] [Em]
light, it's [G] alright
