 C
Bright light, almost blinding

C/F#                     C/G
Black night, still there shining

C/A                    C/E
I can't stop, keep on climbing

 C/F#                       C/Db
Looking for what I knew

C
Had a friend, she once told me

C/F#                     C/G
"You got love, you ain't lonely"

C/A                        C/E       C/F#                 C/Db
Now she's gone and left me only, looking for what I knew

[Chorus]

C          C/F#    C/G
       Ah, ah, ah

C/A       C/E C/F#        C
 Ah        ah   ah

Mmm, I'm telling you now

 C
The greatest thing you ever can do now

 C
Is trade a smile with someone who's blue now

 C                    Cadd#11 C5  Eb C5  D C5  F C5   E C5   G C5 F#  C5
It's very easy, just-

[Verse 2]

 C/F#                C
Met a man on the roadside crying,

 C/F#                         C/G
Without a friend, there's no denying

  C/A                             C/E
You're incomplete, they'll be no finding

 C/F#                      C/Db
Looking for what you knew.

  C
So anytime somebody needs you

  C/F#                               C/G
Don't let them down, although it grieves you

 C/A                                C/E
Some day you'll need someone like they do

 C/F#                     C/Db
Looking for what you knew

[Chorus]

C          C/F#    C/G
       Ah, ah, ah

C/A       C/E C/F#        C
 Ah        ah   ah
