I saw the light, I saw the light
C                          G
No more darkness, no more night
G
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
G                    D            G
Praise the lord, I saw the light


G
I wandered so lonely, life filled with sin
   C                           G
I wouldn't let my dear saviour in
G
Then Jesus came, like a stranger in the night
G                    D            G
Praise the lord, I saw the light



G
I saw the light, I saw the light
C                          G
No more darkness, no more night
G
Now I'm so happy, no sorrow in sight
G                    D            G
Praise the lord, I saw the light

Elizabeth's walking through the garden
D                   C      G
at the morning that I come.
G                          C
Wouldn't be graving off the last
  D                        C        G
Suburbans hanging on my wall.
D                                              C          G
She's supposed for the best lines of every play,
D                       C          G
Not every line but just the one.
G                     C
The winds are dancing with the trees
    D                                C         G
Its distance bells sing the morning song.

G                                C
Elizabeth asked me if I know her name
  D                C        G
I said I do but I never tell
G                                C
Say everything is going on around
    D                            C        G
and yes that's probably just as well
D                          C        G
Everybody's gonna let you down
D                               C          G
That's I why I shall not let them first.
G                           C
Thinks it's gonna be a long walk home tonight
D                                    C        G
said, we are staring at her empty purse.


C                                         G
She knows every word in that country song
    Em                            D
She makes me sing it, she sings along
C                                          G
Surrounded by the friends she thought were (...)
Em                                  D
singing in ghettos where I come from,
C                  G
she steals the show.

G                                  C
Elizabeth's different every time you see her
D                    C         G
Changes like a russian dog
G                          C
Walks back home alone through the garden
D                C          G
As the rains begin to fall
D                           C            G
Garden fence broke down last night
D                                           C     G
The dogs that were barking are now inside
G                          C
Travelling girl in the morning moon
     D                            C  G
Yeah everything's gonna be alright.


C                            G
She knows every word in that country song
    Em                            D
She makes me sing it, she sings along
C                                         G
Surrounded by the friends she thought were (...)
Em                                 D
Singing in ghettos where I come from,
C                    G
She steals the show.
