Where The Light Shines Through

B  E  B  A E

[Verse]
B
When you're feeling like an 
astronaut
E
Stuck on a planet even time forgot, 
and
B                                 
You're a version of yourself, but 
                  A   E
you're not the same
B
You try to keep the wound 
camouflaged, and
E
The stitches heal, but the years are
 lost, and
B                                 
Another bottle on the shelf can't 
           A   E
numb the pain

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
Why you running from yourself now?
F#
You can't run away

[Chorus]
       B                     E
'cause your scars shine like dark 
stars
           B                   
Yeah, your wounds are where the 
           A          E
light shines through
         B                 E
So let's go there, to that place 
where
              F#m                  
We sing these broken prayers where 
              E
the light shines through
                                  B
The wound is where the light shines
          A
 through
           E                       
Yeah, the wound is where the light 
     B          A   E
shines through

[Verse]
B
Ain't we all just Abraham's son?
Continues after the ad
E
Saint and sinner with the song and 
drum, and
B                                 
We're falling on our knees, we all
              A   E
 bleed the same
        B
And the only tattoos that I have are
 scars
E
I got your name written on my heart
        B                          
And the story that brought us here 
                         A   E
ain't the thing that changed, no

[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
I wanna see that light shining
F#
Brighter than the pain

[Chorus]
       B                       E
'cause your scars shine like a dark 
star
           B                   
Yeah, your wounds are where the 
           A          E
light shines through
         B                 E
So let's go there, to that place 
where
              F#m                  
We sing these broken prayers where 
               E
the light shines through
                                  B
The wound is where the light shines 
through
