[Intro]
Em Emmaj7 Cmaj7 Asus2 Bm
Em Emmaj7 Cmaj7 Asus2 Esus4



[Verse 1]
Em     Emmaj7
He\'s a modern man,
     Cmaj7 
Says things well 
nearly 
    Asus2    Esus4
all look the same,
Em             
Fidgets with a 
Emmaj7
ballpoint pen,
       Cmaj7  
And he hangs his 
head like 
  Asus2    Esus4   
a worn out picture 
Em
frame.


[Verse 2]
          Emmaj7
It\'s been far too 
long,
         Cmaj7  
Since he gave a 
dam about 
Asus2     Esus4
anyone or anything,
Em          Emmaj7
Points to a photograph,
     Cmaj7          
Just that one there 
  Asus2    Esus4 Em
reminds me of my home,
    Emmaj7   Cmaj7
Ooh oooh ooh home,
  Asus2    Esus4 
Reminds me of my 
Em   Em7  Em6  Em
home.


[Interlude]
Em Em7 Em6 Emaddb13 Bm


[Verse 3]
Em            
Steady like a 
Emmaj7
workman\'s ward,
          Cmaj7   
There\'s a clock in
 the kitchen that 
Asus2      Esus4
won\'t stop ticking,
Em          Emmaj7
Time is the devil\'s 
thorn,
      Cmaj7            
It\'ll drag it down and 
Asus2     Esus4   Em
just keep kicking out,
              Emmaj7
When she\'s supposed to 
know,
   Cmaj7    
Forever didn\'t seem
 that 
Asus2   Esus4 Em
long so long ago,
             Emmaj7 
oh so long ago . . .
 Cmaj7 Asus2 Esus4  Em

[Chorus]
Am     Am7/G
Just a little white 
light,
Am          Am7/G
Ignore that voice 
inside,
Am
No one here,
          G
Will ever know,
Am             
The things you 
Am7/G
didn\'t want to,
Am           
You let them 
  Am7/G
define you,
Am         
You at all 
              G  D/F#
shouldn\'t let go.

[Verse 4]
Em              
This is how the 
Emmaj7
story goes,
Cmaj7              
Roads and roads of 
Asus2   Esus4
Highway towns,
Em        Emmaj7
Metal and compromise,
        Cmaj7
But the best 
disguises are the 
Asus2    Esus4 Em
ones you keep around,
          Emmaj7
Don\'t you make a 
sound,
Cmaj7                 
No surprises till the 
Asus2  Esus4   Em
sun it settles down,
    Emmaj7   Cmaj7
Aah aah      aah aah,
    Asus2  Esus4   
The sun it settles 
Em  Em7  Em6  Em*
down . . .

[Chorus]
Am     Am7/G
Just a little 
white light,
Am          
Ignore that 
Am7/G
voice inside,
Am
No one here,
          G
Will ever know,
Am             
The things you 
Am7/G
didn\'t want to,
Am           
You let them 
  Am7/G
define you,
Am         
You at all 
              G
shouldn\'t let go.

[Outro]
Em               
Oh listen to the 
Emmaj7
night sometime,
        Cmaj7   
You can hear those 
guiles a man 
Asus2   Esus4
they\'re talking,
Em          
Singing the 
   Emmaj7
September skies,
    Cmaj7  
The moon is 
hidden but 
    Asus2      
the clouds are 
Esus4   Em
walking back.
        Emmaj7
Fall in one straight
 line,
Cmaj7  
Step outside, 
feel the 
Asus2     Esus4 
wind fall right 
   Em
in time,
  Emmaj7  Cmaj7
I I   I   I ,
    Asus2     Esus4 
The wind fall right 
   Em  Em7  Em6  Em
in time.
Em  Em6  Em  Em
Em  Em6  Em  Em
Em  Em6  Em  Em
Em  Em6  Em  Em
Oh . . .

    Oh . . .
