[Intro]
Gm
[Verse]
Gm
Have no fear
F
For when I'm alone
C
I'll be better off than I was before
Gm
I've got this light
F
I'll be around to grow
Who I was before
C
I cannot recall
[Chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Long nights allow me to feel...
G7
I'm falling...I am falling
Bb Am
The lights go out
Dm
Let me feel...I'm falling
G7 Bb Am Dm (Rhy Fig 1)
I am falling safely to... the ground...Ah
[Verse]
Gm F
I'll take this soul that's inside me now
Like a brand new friend
C
I'll forever know
Gm
I've got this light
F
And the will to show
C
I will always be better than before
[Chorus]
Bb Am Dm
Long nights allow me to feel...
G7
I'm falling...I am falling
Bb Am
The lights go out
Dm
Let me feel...I'm falling
G7 Bb Am
I am falling safely to... the ground
