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)
