Lyrics

When you (C)try your best but you (Em)don’t suc ceed,

when you (C)get what you want but (Em)not what you need,

when you (C)feel so tired that (Em)you can’t sleep,

stuck in re (C)verse.

And the (Em)tears come a stream ing down your face

when you (C)lose some thing you (Em)can’t re place.

but When you (C)love some one but it (Em)goes to waste,

could it be (C)worse?

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.

And (Em)high up a bove or down be low,

when you’re (C)too in love to (Em)let it go,

but if you (C)nev er try you’ll it (Em)nev er know

just what you’re (C)worth.

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.

And (Gsus)try

to fix you.

Tears stream

down your face (C)I when you lose some thing (G)you can not re place.

Tears stream

down your face and (C)I...

Tears stream

down your face.

(C)I prom ise you I will (G)learn from my mis takes.

Tears stream

down your face and (C)I...

Lights (C)will (G)guide

you home

and (C)ig (G)nite

your bones,

and I (C)will (Gsus)try

to fix you.
