[Verse]

G               Am
Now through the darkness
Em            D 
I have become
Am                  Em 
The very thing from which
        G              D
 I have always tried to run
G          Am 
And in the past, well

Em             D
 What's done is done
       Am          Em 
You can revisit it now
        G                  D 
But my heart will never be one

[Verse]

G               Am
One thing's for sure
    Em              D 
You are what you ignore
        Am              Em 
Think I hear the future banging
G              D
 Down upon your door
G         Am
I used to think that
Em                D 
Through thick and thin
            Am          Em 
There would always be a place
G                     D *
From which you could begin


[Chorus] 

F                            C
Was that the time to stop or carry on regardless?
Em 
I always heard you saying that
D * 
It's better to light a candle 
Than to curse the darkness

Am D Em ... Am D Am D 


[Verse]

G               Am 
In the almost silence
Em                   D 
I thought I heard
Am              Em 
The universe conspiring
G               D
 With your every word
G          Am  
And on the TV
Em               D 
Working back for more
        Am      Em 
Still in 1989
              G                D *
You threw his stuff out on the lawn


[Chorus] 

F                            C
Was that the time to stop or carry on regardless?
Em 
I always heard you saying that
D * 
It's better to light a candle
 Than to curse the darkness

Am D Em ... Am D Em ... Am D Am D
