*= single strum [Intro] A E C#m Abm D A E E7 [Verse]
       A          E                 C#m    Abm
Been a year-long winter, year-long winter

      Bm   F#m      D          A                     E      E7
Dozen Decembers, we wander the pavement, blow on the embers

      A            E                 C#m    Abm
Heavy frost in my heart, tips of my fingers

            Bm F#m          D          A                           E     E7
Kicking the leaves, there's nothing to feel but the drips from the eaves
[Chorus]
D  A        E    C#m* F#m*
Is this the sun

D   A       E    C#m* F#m*
Are my eyes open

D       A     E    C#m* F#m*
Has the day begun

         D     A               E  C#m* F#m*
Will the light show me what is broken

D  E  F#m  A
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m  A
Ah ah ah
D F#m E E7* [Verse]
A        E                   C#m   Abm
Colours asleep, deep in the den

            Bm F#m    D            A                       E    E7
Gave way to grey,  by chance or by choice we just couldn't say

       A            E                  C#m   Abm
In the dream quarry seams, forgotten stones

           Bm F#m     D               A                      E      E7
A death of earth, the map through the dark is revealing it's worth
[Chorus]
D  A        E    C#m* F#m*
Is this the sun

D   A       E    C#m* F#m*
Are my eyes open

D       A     E    C#m* F#m*
Has the day begun

         D     A               E  C#m* F#m*
Will the light show me what is broken

D  E  F#m  A
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m  A
Ah ah ah

D   F#m
  Mmmmmm

D   F#m   E  E7
  Mmmmmmmmmm
[Outro Chorus]
D    A      E
This is the sun

D  A        E
My eyes are open

    D   A     E
The day has begun

   D  A        E
My senses are woken

       D     A    E
And no fear, only strength

       D      A       E
To the cracks and the links

        D A      E
And the demons retreating

    D A      E
Can never be beaten

    D  A     E
The prism is shifting

    D    A           E
The lighthouse grows twisted

          D    A      E
Though we slip on the scree

   D   A        E
Of two steps in three

        D   A     E
And the memory of pain

     D   A        E
Is a tightly held token

D      A           E
Smooth through the rain

        D         A               E       Bm*  F#m*
And the light has shown me how to let the hope in

D  E  F#m
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m
Ah ah ah

D  E  F#m  A
Ah ah ah
[Outro] D F#m D F#m
