THE BRIGHTEST LIGHTS
by James Hill
[Intro 1]
D A
G D G D A D
G D A D
[Intro 2]
G D G D G D A D
[Verse]
G D G D
I wore a carnation
D G A
You wore a lilly white.
G D G D
Our young love...
D G A
It could survive on sunlight.
G D G D
It was foolish and fancy,
D G A
Tasted like cotton candy.
G D G D
I love you, I miss you
D G
Like Elvis misses
A D G D G D G D A D
Tennessee.
[Verse]
G D G D
I sent you a postcard
D G A
Confessions on both sides.
G D G D
An old flame will flicker
D G A
And turn blue before it dies.
G D G D
I can't shake these memories
D G A
They stick like wet confetti.
G D G D
A swim in the ocean
D G A D G D
Might not hurt me any.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G
It's mid-July and there's still
A7 D
a chance of rain
Bm G
The sky has gone from black
A7
to white to gray...
[Chorus]
D
Don't the brightest lights
G A7 D
cast the darkest shadows?
G
Oh my love
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
[Verse]
G D G D
I'm spinnin', I'd dizzy,
D G A
I'm busy pushin' paper.
G D G D
I build things...
D G A
To tear them all down later.
G D G D
Decisions, distractions
D G A
These angles of refraction.
G D G D
And somehow you sleep through
D G A D G D
The sound of cymbals crashin'.
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G
It's December but there's still
A7 D
a chance of rain
Bm G
The sky has gone from black
A7
to white again...
[DOUBLE CHORUS]
D
Don't the brightest lights
G A7 D
cast the darkest shadows?
G
Oh my love
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
D
Don't the brightest lights
G A7 D
cast the darkest shadows?
G
Oh my love
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
[CODA]
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
A7 D G D G D G D A D
Let me go
