Verse
F#
It's a new day

It's a bright day
D# C#
Even when you stand in the dark
It's just that
F# B
You've been broken into fifty pieces
D# C# B
Today is gone
B
I'm the only light that you see
F# D# C#
You need someone
C#
I know all you needed was me
 
Chorus
F# C#
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
D#
Just tell me something new
B
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
 
Repeat chords
 
Another pale moon
Shines like high noon
Midnight never felt so cold alone
It's just that you're uneasy
When you need me
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me
 
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can say it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
 
Today is gone
I'm the only light that you see
You need someone
I know all you needed was me
 
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
 
Everyday we wake if it takes too long
Just tell me something new
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
You can think it's right, but it feels so wrong
Just show me something true
Forget about the sunshine
Forget about the sunshine when it's gone
