The Big Light

C


[Verse 1]
       C
Well, I had a little feeling to have a big night
      G
And I woke up feeling small and not so brave and not quite right
         C
I had to face the where was I and who was she, what did I do
         G                          C
Worst of all, I had to face the big light


[Chorus]
        C                                   F7
The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids
         G                                       C
And it snapped them up like roller blinds and it told me things that I did
        C                             F7
I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications
        G
And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration


[Verse 2]
         C
When the hangover this morning had a personality
      G
And I cast my shattered mind over selected memories
       C
Didn't even touch the light switch, cause I didn't want to see
     G                                     C
That haggard face that was staring back at me


[Chorus]
        C                                   F7
The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids
         G                                       C
And it snapped them up like roller blinds and it told me things that I did
        C                             F7
I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications
        G
And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration

[Verse 3]
       C
Yes, I had a little feeling to have a big time
      G
And I woke up to alarm bells like a big church chime
       C
Had to face the where was I and who was she, what did I do
         G                          C
Worst of all, I had to face the big light


[Chorus]
        C                                   F7
The big light came through my window and it opened up my eyelids
         G                                       C
And it snapped them up like roller blinds and it told me things that I did
        C                             F7
I can't face another day and night of good ideas and complications
        G
And I'm thankful that I didn't open another bottle of inspiration


[Outro]
        C                  F7
Oh it's nice to go out and have a big night
              G                                C
But sooner or later you're got to face the big light
