A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
A5        B5       G5
Coming through the trees

A5    B5 G5

A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
A5        B5       G5
Coming through the trees

A5    B5 G5 

A5    B5 D5

A5      B5  G5
Freshly cut lawns
           A5       B5      G5
And little children sleepwalking
A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light

A5    B5 G5

A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
A5      B5   D5
Shining on a car
      A5     B5  G5
And a couple in--side
      A5      B5     G5
Had committed suicide

A5    B5 D5

A5    B5 G5

A5       B5     G5   (g-g-g...)
Death in your   arms
A5       B5     G5
Death in your   arms
A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
A5        B5       G5
Coming through the trees
A5       B5  G5
I packed my  things

A5    B5 G5   (d-d-d...)

A5    B5 G5

      A5    B5  G5
After I saw the light
A5       B5  G5
I packed my  things
    A5         B5  G5
The light gave me  life
          A5       B5   G5
Helped me see more clearly
        A5       B5      G5
And the children went to sleep
        A5        B5   G5
And the car was towed away
        A5          B5  G5
And the leaves were rustling
       A5           B5 G5
As the night turned to day
A5    B5 G5
I saw a  light
        A5       B5    G5
Getting smaller in the distance
    A5     B5    G5
And I said good--bye
