[Intro] C  D  Em  G  C

Em                  D      C C7M
My fire is starved of oxygen
C               D        Em
A flicker in the howling wind
C                   D       Em
Beware the night is closing in
                          D        G
And if I fall asleep, the shadows win

         Em               D       C
Well the darkness came to take my faith
                     D        Em
It tried to steal my words to pray
   C                   D    Em
My love came down like holy rain
                  D/F#     G    D  G  C  D/F#  D
And she became my God that day

Em                D        G
And she became my God that day

Em                   D         C
She taught me how to think out loud
                D             Em
To listen when there ain't no sound
C               D              Em
To love myself through all the doubt
                    D/F#   G     D  G  C  G  D
To sing and make my mother proud

    Em                  D      G     D  G  C  G  D
Oh, to sing and make my mother proud

     Em                  D      G
Mmm, to sing and make my mother proud

       Em                D    C
In the dark I learned to love again
                    D      Em
A sacred place it's always been
      C                D    Em
Where souls depart and life begins
                   D     G
The dark led me to light again
      Em                 D/F#  G     D  G  C  G  D
Yeah, the dark led me to light again

      Em                 D     G     D  G  C  G  D
Yeah, the dark led me to light again

      Em                 D     G
Yeah, the dark led me to light again
