[Intro]
G Cadd9 G
G Cadd9 G
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 G
A quiet life in the country
G Cadd9 G
Who knew the silence was so loud
G Cadd9 G
No fireflies in the winter
G Cadd9 G
A sun blocked out by the clouds
G Cadd9 G
A bus to school, sat alone there
G Cadd9 G
Feelin’ the coolness of the window
G Cadd9 Am Em
Bright-eyed boy askin’ “what’s your name?”
G Cadd9 G
A ray of light begins to show
[Chorus 1]
Am Em
And you don’t really know how cold it is
Am Em
You never knew how much you couldn’t see
Am C
Til someone takes your hand and calls you a friend
Am G Cadd9 G
I never thought that light was meant for me
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 G
On down the line the road is bumpy
Cadd9 G
Friends come and go, but still he stays
Cadd9 Am C Em
A solid rock on a shifting sea
G Cadd9 G
Feelings grow in unexpected ways
[Chorus 2]
Am Em
And you’re painfully away of the way it is
Am Em
You swallow feelings no one else should see
Am C Em Am
With summer closin’ in, high school days will end
C G
He’ll never know how much he meant to me
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 G
After the dance can’t help but linger
Cadd9 G
My heart is poundin’ out my chest
Cadd9 Am C Em
The brightest eyes on me tonight
G Cadd9 G
Can’t help but leap, hope for the best
[Chorus 3]
Am Em
And you never really knew how small the cage was
Am Em
Til someone came along and set you free
Am C Em Am
Two heartbeats hand in hand, a lover and a friend
C G
I never knew this kind of love could be
(strum once)
Am Em Am C (let ring)
Now here we stand, upon the shiftin’ sand
N.C.
Oh what’s become of my bright-eyed boy
G
And me?
