F    A
Ooh-ooh
F                 A
Ooh, what can you do?
F                 A
Ooh, what does it prove, love?
         F         G#           A
New love comes, so what can you do?

[Refrain]
A           G                D/F#       F    E
When you're searching in the dark
A          G                D/F#             F    E   A
It doesn't matter if you're blind, does it? Can't you see
A         G                  D/F#       F    E
That even lightning's just a spark?
A             G                   D/F#               F    E  A
But it's so enlightening when you need to shine the light on me

[Chorus]
F                     A
Ooh, what can you do, love?
F                A
Ooh, if only we knew
F                  A
Ooh, what does it prove, love?
             F        G#          A
New love comes, so what can you do?


[Verse]
A            G                  D/F#     F    E
My hands are colder when you're gone
A           G                D/F#             F    E    A
It makes it hard to play the notes I write to warm your mind
A             G             D/F#         F    E
But nothing's colder than a song
A            G           D/F#            F   E  D/F#
That's never played in a pile of papers left behind
D/F#               E
Only God can know how the story's told
F        G#      A
Over and over again
D/F#                     E
But we don't need to know why the flowers grow
F             G#         A
Let's just be happy they can


[2x Intro melody]


[Refrain]
A           G                D/F#        F    E
When you're searching in the dark
A          G                D/F#             F    E   A
It doesn't matter if you're blind, does it? Can't you see
A         G                  D/F#        F    E
That even lightning's just a spark?
A             G                   D/F#              F     E  A
But it's so enlightening when you need to shine the light on me


[Outro]
A    G           D/F#    F    E
Ooh, what can we do?

Ooh, what can we do?
          F     E  A
Shine the light on me
A    G           D/F#
Ooh, what can we do?
          F     E  A
Shine the light on me
A    G           D/F#
Ooh, what can we do?
          F     E  A
Yeah
