Trick Of The Light

C  Am  C  G

C                             Am
My head is ringing like it's never done before
      C                                    G
And I don't think I'll be sleeping anymore
C
Your legs are twisted
          Am
and your fingernails are claws
C                                               G
You stood there with your face turned to the door

I said
 C
"Am I doomed forever,
           Am
will this ending never come,
       C                                  G
can someone give me something to call it off"
       C
Said I crawled across the ceiling as you
   Am
sunk beneith the floor,
      C                            G
I don't think I can take this anymore

Am                                   C
You come sneaking up on sleeping eyes
                   Em                         C
and I swear it's always just a trick of the light
 Am                       C
Don't you wake me up I'm dreaming out
                   Em                        C
and I swear it's always just a trick of the light

  C                      Am
So I'll tell you like it is
                    C
hang my head at the reasons
            G
There's a place where people go for that
 C                              Am
Cause the guilt came crashing in
                              C
And said, I never will be leaving
   G
I don't think I can handle that
     C                         Am
Well those days, they set it off
          C                 C
and it kinds of rips your heart out
   G
on my knees I swear to that

 Am                 C
Battlestations all alone
                   Em            C
this is where the hard times roll
   Am                     C
I've got a piece of you at home
                  Em             C
this is where your head it goes

C                       Em
Facing up I found your letter,
                    D
made me want to call you
     C                                 Em
go back to where we started from, again.
                       D
Waking up and I feel better
                     C
you're taking up my headroom
        Em                         D
I'll wrap my whitered arms around you

                              C
There's a place where you go dreaming
                      Em
set off trails of thunder
       D                               C
I'll trace it up and down your spine, again
                         Em
And you know that if you feel it
                     D
I'll be waiting for you
                      C
waiting through the seasons
