Capo 1
[Intro]
G Cadd2/G C/G
[Verse 1]
G Gsus4 C G/B
The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them
Am C Am D
And all the dreams I had the night before came back
G Gsus4 C G/B
The faces that I'd seen looked so familiar
Am C Am D D#dim
But they're just strangers - I haven't met them yet
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Em C G D#dim
I know the morning is wiser than the evening
Em C G Gmaj7/F# Em D#dim
I know that wrong and right can sometimes look the same
Em C G
So many things I know, but they don't help me
Am C Am D
Each day I open up my eyes and start again
[Chorus 1]
G C G
The light comes shining in my eyes
C G
The light comes shining in my eyes
C G
The light comes shining in my eyes
C G
The light comes shining in my eyes
[Verse 2]
G Gsus4 C G/B
So many stories, I want to tell you
Am C Am D
I wish that I could show you the many things I've seen
G Gsus4 C G/B
You and your daddy, you both look like poets
Am C Am D D#dim
Your eyes are open wide while you are in a dream
[PreChorus 2]
Em C G D#dim
I know the morning is wiser than the night time
Em C G Gmaj7/F# Em D#dim
I know there's nothing wrong, I shouldn't feel so down
Em C G
So many things I know, but they don't help me
Am C Am D
Each day I open up my eyes to look around
[Chorus 2]

My eyes are closed now

Count the stars inside your mind

Count the sounds of life
[Verse 3]
G Gsus4 C G/B
The light was shining in my eyes before I closed them
