**********************************************************************

Ultraviolet (Light My Way)

 

[Keyboard plays a C#m on this sentence]

 

"Sometimes I feel like I don't know, sometimes I feel like checking out

I wanna get it wrong, can't always be strong, and love it won't be long"

 

Intro: E G#m A (this is structure (1))

 

(1) Oh sugar, don't you cry,

oh child wipe the tears from your eyes

You know I need you to be strong,

and the day's as dark as the night is long

 

C#m B

(2) Feel like trash, you make me feel clean

A

I'm in the black, can't see or be seen

C#m B A

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

C#m B A

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

 

(1) You bury your treasure where it can't be found

But your love's like a secret that's been passed around

There is a silence that comes to a house where no one can sleep

 

(2) I guess it's the price of love, I know it's not cheap

Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way

Oh, come on, baby, baby, baby, light my way

 

E B C#m A (twice)

(3) Ooooh, ultraviolet...

C#m B E A

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

 

(1) I remember when we could sleep on stones

But now we lie together in whispers and moans

When I was all messed up, and I heard opera in my head

 

(2) Your love was a lightbulb hanging over my bed

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

 

(3) Ooooh, ultraviolet...

 

G#m A E B

(4) Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,

C#m B E

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
