F# Ab F# Bbsus4
In the darkness before the dawn
F# Ab F# Bbsus4
In the swirling of the storm
Bbm7 C# F#6
When I'm rolling with the punches And hope is gone
Ab F#
Leave a light, a light on
( Bbm F# Bbsus4 )
F# Ab F# Bbsus4
Millions are miles from home
F# Ab F#6 Bbsus4
In the swirling swimming on
Bbm C#
When I'm rolling with the thunder
Fm7 F#
But bleed from thorns
Ab F#
Leave a light, a light on
Ab F#
Leave a light, a light on
( Bbm C# F# )
Bbm C# F#
Oooooooooo aaaaaaahhhhh
F# Ab F#
Leave a light on, a light on
F# Ab F#6
Leave a light, a light on

In the darkness before the dawn

In the darkness before the dawn

Leave a light, a light on

Leave a light, a light on
