Lightbulb Chords by Eleanore Rue

[Intro]

A   D   A
 
 
[Verse 1]
                  A
The moon's just a smile in the night sky
       D                 
Constellations blacked out 
                   A
by artificial light
                              G
I can't remember the last time
D                               N.C.
I stayed up to watch the sunrise
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

         A
I need salvation
             D                         
Something to pull me out of the mess 
                    A
that I've been making
   D
Oh-oh,
 
 
[Chorus]
       Bm7
'Cause death waits for no one
    D                            A
And light doesn't start 'til you do
    Bm7
The middle ground is everything
D
Chaotic energy
A
I'm drowning in the stars 

and getting battle scars
Bm7                          A
I need the light, I need the light, 

I need truth
Bm7                          E   
I need the light, I need the light 
        A        D
to break through
 
 
[Verse 2]
            A
When did it get so dark?
A
I swear I spent too much time 

with lightbulbs and coffee shops
A
Never knew, never knew
        D
I could get so lost (Get so lost)
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

A
I need salvation
             D                         
Something to pull me out of the mess 
                      A
that I've been making
                 D
Oh-oh, that I've been making
 
 
[Chorus]
       Bm7
'Cause death waits for no one
    D                        A
And light doesn't start 'til you do
    Bm
The middle ground is everything
D
Chaotic energy
A
I'm drowning in the stars 

and getting battle scars
Bm                           E
I need the light, I need the light, 

I need truth
Bm7                          E
I need the light, I need the light 

to break through
 
 
[Bridge]
                 D     
'Cause I've been sitting 
                    A
in the dark for too long
   D                    
Forgetting all the words 
      A
to my favorite songs, oh
   D
My eyes got adjusted
       E
And my soul forgot justice, but
D             A
Survival just isn't enough, no
D             A            E
Survival just isn't enough
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
          A
I need salvation
             D
Something to pull me out of the mess 

that I've been making
 

 
[Chorus]
       Bm7
'Cause death waits for no one
    D                        A
And light doesn't start 'til you do
    Bm
The middle ground is everything
D
Chaotic energy
A
I'm drowning in the stars 

and getting battle scars
Bm                           E
I need the light, I need the light, 

I need truth
Bm                           E
I need the light, I need the light, 

I need truth
 
 
[Outro]
Bm                 
I need the light, 
           E
I need the light, I need you
Bm                           A    E
I need the light, I need the light
Bm        E
O Lord, I need your light
   A
To break through
       D     E A
Oh-oh, oh-oh
