|F#m |A   |E   |B   |


[Verse 1]
F#m                               A
  You were waiting outside for me... in the sun
E                               B
  Laying down to soak it all in... before we had to run
F#m                            A
  I was always ten feet behind you... from the start
E                           B
  Didn't know you were gone...'til we were in the car


[Chorus]
A                         E
  Oh, the glory of it all... was lost on me
A                                  B
 'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you, and I would always be
A                           E
  Light years, light years away from you
A                           B
  Light years, light years away from you


[Verse 2]
F#m                                    A
  I thought I saw your mother last weekend... in the park
E                          B
  It could've been anybody... it was after dark
F#m                             A
  Everyone was lighting up in the shadows... alone
E                                          B
  You could've been right there next to me... and I'd have never known


[Chorus]
A                         E
  Oh, the glory of it all... was lost on me
A                                  B
 'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you, and I would always be
A                           E
  Light years, light years away from you
A                           B
  Light years, light years away from you
A                           E
  Light years, light years away from you
A                           B
  Light years, light years away from you
