[Intro]
C#m   A E
C#m   A E

[Verse 1]
C#m               
Tell me once again
A                 E              C#m 
I could have been anyone, anyone else
                     A           E
Before you made the choice for me
C#m                  
My feet knew the path
A                E                
We walked in the dark, in the dark
  C#m                        
I never gave a single thought
         A            E
To where it might lead
C#m   A E
C#m   A E

[Verse 2]
C#m                  
All those empty rooms
A                  E                  C#m 
We could have been anywhere, anywhere else
                          A     E
Instead I made a bed with apathy
C#m                     
My heart knew the weight
A                  E               
Ten years worth of dust and neglect
   C#m                          
We made our peace with weariness
    A       E
And let it be
C#m   A E
C#m   A E

[Pre-Chorus]
    C#m                         
The moon will sing a song for me
  B                  A  
I loved you like the sun
C#m                           
Bore the shadows that you made
     B              A  
With no light of my own

[Chorus]
C#m                                   AE
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m                                   AE
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m   A E
C#m   A E

[Verse 3]
C#m                  
Name your courage now
A                 E                  C#m 
We could have had anything, anything else
                                A        E
Instead you hoarded all that’s left of me
C#m                  
Swallowing your doubt
A                  E              
Like swords to the pit of my belly
  C#m                            A          E
I want to feel the fire that you kept from me
C#m   A E
C#m   A E

[Pre-Chorus]
    C#m                         
The moon will sing a song for me
  B                  A  
I loved you like the sun
C#m                           
Bore the shadows that you made
     B              A  
With no light of my own

[Chorus]
C#m                                   AE
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m                                   AE
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m                                   A                    E              
I shine only with the light you gave me (I could have been anyone, anyone)
C#m                                   A                    E              
I shine only with the light you gave me (I could have been anyone, anyone)
C#m   A E
C#m   A E
