The Cat Empire - Only Light Ukulele

Verse 1

Am
All along the street
                           G
They're holding signs that say

That I am lost
         F       E          Am
And that I do not know the way

I asked the rock
                      G
Sitting in a shade of grey

I asked the rock
          F      E        Am    
He didn't have a thing to say

Chorus:

    Am          G            C
But you are the only light I see
            D            Am 
You are the only light I need
          G            C 
When everybody else is sleeping
          D                Am  
You come along and help me breathe

Verse 2

When I was a stone
No one knew that I was there
I'd sing my song and
No one ever really cared
I went to the mountain
Face all covered in tears
I wept but
Mountain didn't seem to hear

Chorus:

So you are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You come along and help me breathe

You are the only light I see (x2)

Verse 3

I love you
'Till the mountain starts to cry
I love you
If I don't know the reason why
I love you
Until I do not know my name
I ask you
Wouldn't you have done the same

Chorus

Oh you are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You come along and help me breathe

You are the only light I see
You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You bring the magic over me

You are the only light I see (x4)
