Tom: G

Intro: C - Bb - F - C - F - Dm 

                      G                 F - G                  F   C
1.                    I can't light        no more of your    darkness,
G - F                     G - F                              G     - F - G
      all my pictures        seem to fade to black and white.
FG                        F - G                         F C
      I'm growing tired,       and time stands still before me,
G - F                  G - F                        G      -F - G
      frozen here          on the ladder of my life.
   F - G                         F - G                   F   C
2.        It's much too late        to save myself from falling,
G - F                       G - F                            G    -F - G
       I took a chance          and changed your way of life.
F - G                     F - G                     F   C
       But you misread       my meaning when I met you,
G - F                      G - F                C             G
       closed the door        and left me blinded by the light.
 

C                         Bb
    Don't let the sun go down on me,
Am                                          D7
    although I search myself, it's always someone else I see.
C                                      F  - G                C   C7
    I'd just allow a fragment of your life       to wander free, oh - 
         F                             Dm   C     F    G  C
    but losing everything is like the sun going down on me.
     -Bb - F - C - F - D  G                F - G                  F            - C
3.                   I can't find,      oh, the right romantic line,
G - F                      G - F                     G    - F - G
      but see me once         and see the way I feel.
F - G                      F - G                            F               - C
      Don't discard me,       just because you think I mean you harm.
G - F                                        C               G
      But these cuts I have, oh they need love to help me heal, oh!
                     C - Bb - F  G# - Bb                         -Bb - F - G# - Bb - C
