The Daylight Here

        Em
To my mother,

                           G
I'll be sorry that I gotta go

         C
To my brother,

                           Am
I'll be sorry that I gotta go

   Em
To you I wish that I could say,

            G
I wish you well

        C
But I think I'll be waiting

 Am
until
              Em
I'm honestly able.


Em
I'm sure

                           G
the air is lighter on the seas

     C
In every city settled

              Am
far away from me

Em
Now I'm negotiating

          G
with the fear

                   C
That something's wrong

                   Am
with the daylight here

                Em
And I can't fix it.



  Em
Crooked or kind,

        G
if I'm free, if I'm fine

        D
Either way,

           Em
whatever I do

     Em
Whichever coast,

             G
there'll be room there for ghosts

        D
Either way,

                    Em
I'll be thinking of you.



      Em
When gone I have sworn

                   G
that I will worry not

         C
Of satisfaction, justice,

                Am
or the will of God

    Em
I'm not sure

                                G
there's any difference in the three

   C
Whatever the conscience

  Am
decrees
                     Em
I hope we both feel right.


  Em
Crooked or kind,

        G
if I'm free, if I'm fine

        D
Either way,

           Em
whatever I do

     Em
Whichever coast,

             G
there'll be room there for ghosts

        D
Either way,

                    Em
I'll be thinking of you.
