[verse]:
     D             Bm           
if I ever feel the light again    
   G
shining down on me
A                                  
I dont have to tell you        how 
G                 D
welcome it would be
           Bm                      
I felt the light before        but 
   G
I let it slip away
    A                              
and I just keep on believing   that
 G                  D
 itll come back someday


[chorus]:
              G                    
its not the spotlight        its 
       D
not the candlelight
               G                 A
its not the streetlights     of 
                  D
some old street of dreams
             G                  
it aint the moon light       not 
           D
even the sunlight
      G               A
but I seen it shining in your eyes
    G         A      D
and you know what I mean

     D             Bm             
sometimes I try to tell myself    
     G
the light was never real
Continues after the ad
        A                        
just a fantasy that used to be    
     G                D
the way I used to feel
    D               Bm            
but you and I know better         
      G
even though its been so long
             A                     
now if your memory really serves 
             G
you well youll never tell me no
  D
wrong


              G                    
its not the spotlight        its 
       D
not the candlelight
               G                 A
its not the streetlights     of 
                  D
some old street of dreams
             G                  
it aint the moon light       not 
           D
even the sunlight
      G               A
but I seen it shining in your eyes
    G         A      D
and you know what I mean

 shining down on me
