Intro: C C D Em
       C C D Em

Verse:
C
   You got a face not spoiled by beauty;
D                             Em
    I have some scars from where I’ve been.
C
    You’ve got eyes that can see right through me,
D                          Em
    You’re not afraid of anything they’ve seen.

Pre-Chorus:
          C                     D           Em
I was told that I would feel nothing the first time
            C
I donʼt know how these cuts heal,
          D            Em
but in you I found a rhyme.

Chorus:
                     C                    G
If there is a light,   you canʼt always see,
                     D                 Em
And there is a world   we canʼt always be.
                   C                       G
If there is a dark   that we shouldnʼt doubt,
                      D                  Em
And there is a light,   donʼt let it go out.
                 C  G
And this is a Song
  D          Em
a Song for Someone;
              C  G
This is a Song
  D          Em  C
a Song for Someone

Verse:
C
    You let me into a conversation,
D                      Em
    A conversation only we could make.
C
    You break and enter my imagination;
D                            Em
    Whateverʼs in there, itʼs yours to take.

Pre-Chorus:
      C                G       D            Em
I was told that I would feel nothing the first time
         C            G       D          Em
You were slow to heal, but this could be the night.

Chorus:
                     C                     G
If there is a light,   you canʼt always see,
                     D                  Em
And there is a world   we canʼt always be.
                   C                   G
If there is a dark   within and without
                     D                    Em
And there is a light,   donʼt let it go out.
                  C G
And this is a Song
  D          Em
a Song for Someone;
             C G
This is a Song
  D          Em
a Song for Someone

Outro:
          C       G                D           Em
And Iʼm a long, long way from your hill of Calvary,
              C   G               D
And Iʼm a long way from where I was
                     Em
and where I need to be.

                     C                    G
If there is a light,   you canʼt always see,
                     D                 Em
And there is a world   we canʼt always be.
                    C                       G
If there is a kiss    I stole from your mouth
                     D
And this is a light,   donʼt let it go out.
