Afinação: E A D G B ETecla: GCapotraste:
1st traste
[Verse]
G
Standing alone with a ticket in my hand
C G
I paid all my money to be here
G
That's why it's taken me so damn long
C G
To ask for the help to leave here
 
G
And how I imagine never comes to fruition
C G
I've got volumes of stories to spin here
G
And my best dreams are only a sad imitation
C G
Of the mystery that cannot be seen here
 
[Chorus]
C G
All of my nights for a glimpse of the sun
C G
All of my faith in the great unknown
C G
All of my love to be finally shown
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
 
[Verse]
G
I'm a scoundrel at best, all the things that I've kept
C G
Are from those who've already been here
G
And the words that I write were first written by them
C G
Still I claim to have something to say here
 
G
And we each meet the garden as new as the first
C G
Better to eat the fruit than be blind here
G
And set into motion, we wonder the reason
C G
And trust that there's something to find here
 
[Chorus]
C G
All of my nights for a glimpse of the sun
C G
All of my faith in the great unknown
C G
All of my love to be finally shown
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
 
[Verse]
G
The heavy weight of the nothing out there
C G
Is enough to bury me down here
G
And this fire in my chest can't just run out of breath
C G
And leave no trace of love to be found here
 
G
Say again the thing that you said back then
C G
About how there's no reason to fear here
G
And the wind will blow where the wind will blow
C G
Don't mind me, I'm down on my knees here
 
[Chorus]
C G
All of my nights for a glimpse of the sun
C G
All of my faith is just the things that I've done
C G
All of my love to be finally shown
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
D C G
Oh daylight, won't you come
