                                              I       see

[Verse 1]
Am                              F             C     Csus2
Twinkling in the window, it’s a sparkle on the snow
Am                       F       C        Csus2
Hovering to see if I can see you come and go
  Am                       F             C    Csus2
I came down the dark road, arms under my coat
       Am               F        C  Csus2
And my breath is nearly freezing my eyes
C      F  C  Csus2  Am
Closed

    C                          F              C       Csus2

[Verse 2]
    Am                           F            C     Csus2
The car that dropped me off, why did it turn around
    Am                F        C    Csus2
And watch me walk the long way down
         Am           F              C   Csus2
Past the glow of town like a setting sun
  Am                 F       C     Csus2
Horizons alive with electric light and
C   F  C  Csus2  Am
Hum


[Chorus 1]
                         F             C                        Am   G
Were you standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up?
    F              C                    Am
And held me to the end of the long line
                        F              C                 Am     G
Have you got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck?
          F             C        G         Am
Well this light of your life has drawn the blind


[Verse 3]
          Am                                   F            C     Csus2
There was something about the handwriting that made me keep every scrap
Am                               F           C      Csus2
Something about the way the eyes looked away at the last
          Am                       F         C   Csus2
I've kept something burning on the sill real low
    Am               F
But now I don't know


[Chorus 2]
         C               F             C                        Am   G
Were you standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up?
    F              C                     Am
And held me to the end of the long line
                        F              C                 Am     G
Have you got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck?
          F             C        G         Am
Well this light of your life has drawn the blind


[Verse 4]
    Am                       F            C
The wind from the river will swirl like a scream
    Am                     F  C
And wrap itself 'round you
         Am               F              C
There may be a friend somewhere down the road
         Am               F       C
But from here you have to walk it out
 C    F  C  Csus2  Am
Alone


[Chorus 3]
                               F             C                        Am   G
Cause you were standing in the greeting card aisle when you called me up
    F              C                      Am
And held me to the end of your long line
                          F              C                 Am     G
And you've got me in your bleeding heart file next to lady luck
         F             C         F         C
And this light of your life will not shine twice
     F     C   G         Am
This light has drawn the blind
