Sing now muse I won't be scared
        Em                                   G            G
She's wearing flowers not snakes up in her hair tonight
Em
And love we've been around before
   Em                                   G         G
We washed up on the old shore but it's new tonight
Em
'It's only light' she said
 EM 12          C   34        G 1234 G 
'But we are liars to be free'
Am          C                         Em     Em
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see
 
Em
The hour falls we fall to dance
EmNow sirens and the marching bands sing
G                          G
'It's nothing but chance tonight'

Em
The billion ones and many few
 Em                                 G
And everyone I never knew they're here tonight
Em
'It's only light' we said
 Em 12          C   34        G 1234 
But we are liars to be free
Am  C                        G    Em
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see
 
G                     G
What if I'm lonely?
            Em            Em
What if the skies should fall and disappear?
              G     G
For one night only
          Em        Em
Open your eyes and run into the clear
        Am          C
So if I may, what if I say
       D                G
'It's good to have you here!'
 
Em
She said 'If you lead I'll come along
    Em                 C                    G        G
And if you need me there I'll sing your song tonight
Em
And all that glows and all that shines
   Em               C                     G         G
And all we leave behind will keep them warm tonight'
Em
'It's only light' I said
  Em 12          C  34        G 1234 G 1234
But we are liars to be free
Am  C/                          G       G
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see
 
             G        G
What if I'm lonely?
            Em            Em
What if the skies should fall and disappear?
              G     G
For one night only
           Em       Em
Open your eyes and run into the clear
           G     G
I love you only
            Em        Em
Until the skies fall down and disappear
        Am          C

'It's good to have you here!'
