This is the chord progression of Light Years by The National on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Intro]
|F#m |A |E |B |
[Verse 1]
F#m A
You were waiting outside for me… in the sun
E B
Laying down to soak it all in… before we had to run
F#m A
I was always ten feet behind you… from the start
E B
Didn\’t know you were gone…\’til we were in the car
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, the glory of it all… was lost on me
A B
\’Til I saw how hard it\’d be to reach you, and I would always be
A E
Light years, light years away from you
A B
Light years, light years away from you
[Verse 2]
F#m A
I thought I saw your mother last weekend… in the park
E B
It could\’ve been anybody… it was after dark
F#m A
Everyone was lighting up in the shadows… alone
E B
You could\’ve been right there next to me… and I\’d have never known
[Chorus]
A E
Oh, the glory of it all… was lost on me
A B
\’Til I saw how hard it\’d be to reach you, and I would always be
A E
Light years, light years away from you
A B
Light years, light years away from you
A E
Light years, light years away from you
A B
Light years, light years away from you
[Outro]
|F#m |A |E |B | x3
