Tom: Em
Em
[Verse 1]
A9 D G
I would shun the light, share in evening's cool and quiet
C7 B7
Who would trade that hum of night
D G Em
For sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
A9
But whose heart would not take flight
D G
Betray the moon as acolyte
C7 B7
On first and fierce affirming sight
D G Em
Of sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[Chorus]
D
I had been lost to you sunlight
A7 Em
And flew like a moth to you, sunlight, oh, sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
Oh, but it is sunlight
[Verse 2]
A9
All the tales the same
D G
Told before and told again
C7 B7
A soul that’s born in cold and rain
D G Em
Knows sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
A9
And at last can grant a name
D G
To a buried and a burning flame
C7 B7
As love and its decisive pain
D G Em
Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[Chorus]
D
All that was shown to me, sunlight
A7 Em
There's somethin' foreknown to me, sunlight, oh sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight, sunlight
[Bridge]
C D G Bm7
Oh, all these colors fade for you (only)
Am B7 Em D G
Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight
C D G Bm7
Oh, all these colors fade for you (only)
Am B7 Em D G
Hold me, carry me slowly, my sunlight
[Interlude]
Em
[Verse 3]
A9
Each day, you'd rise with me
D G
Know that I would gladly be
C7 B7
The Icarus to your certainty
D G Em
Oh, my sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
A9
Strap the wings to me
D G
Death trap clad happily
C7 B7
With wax melted, I'd meet the sea
D G Em
Under sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
[Final Chorus]
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight
B7
Oh, your love is sunlight
C
Oh, your love is sunlight
G Em
But it is sunlight
[Outro]
Em
Sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight, sunlight
