[Verse 1]

C                         G
The night sky had broken, the new year had spoken
D                    Em
I was beside myself, I stood out in the cold
C                        G
In an empty parking lot, my breath was streaming hot
Em                           D                C G D G D
I willed the car to start to bring me home to you
Em                    D                 C
Lead me back from the darkness like you do


[Chorus]

C                  G
Before I knew you, I lived in the rearview
Em                       D
To wish back an image of myself I thought was true
C                       G
So now when colors fade and on that day of days
Em                  D                C G D G D               
I needed you to say it wasn't one to ruin

Em                  D                          C
Oh and lead me back from the darkness like you do

[Verse 2]
C                        G
Headlights and cold rain distorting the dark panes
Em                     D
Wipers clicking and my thoughts they followed suit
C                        G
I felt like Willy Loman, the mighty plans I'd spoken
Em                           D                    
Guess they were illusions of a man who dreamed too big

C                           G
But I remember you dancing in autumn when we met
Em                           D
You won't believe I saw it then so many years ago
C                              G
There was something about you I struggled to forget
Em                           D
My blood was rushing down to you

Em                                D                 C
You were leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
Em                       D                 C
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
Em                       D                 C
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
Em                       D                 
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
Am                     G              D           Em
Leading me back like a horse to water knowing I'd refuse
Am G D
oooohhh
 C              G           
'Cause you're a wanderer too

C G D Em
oooooooh
C G   D
oooooooh
