                      A Certain Light


Capo:5th fret 
Standard Tuning
 
[Intro]
G      Bm/F#
C      G
G/F#   Em     C    D   D/C D/B  D/A
 
[Verse 1]
        G                Bm/F#
My new lover, sweet and kind
C                           G
the kind of lover that one rarely finds
G/F#    Em            C                D          D/C D/B  D/A
and I'm happy for the first time in a long time
 
        G                Bm/F#
came along and opened up the door
     C                           G
and though I know I've been in love before
G/F#   Em             C                D          D/C D/B  D/A
Oh, I feel it so much more than the last time
 
[Chorus]
        C                G
and she only looks like you 
     C                 G
in a certain kind of light
        C                     G      D   D/C D/B  D/A
when she holds her head just right
 
[Verse 2]
          G               Bm/F#
It's been winter for awhile
    C                           G
the North Winds wail cut like a baby child's
G/F#    Em               C                     D          D/C D/B  D/A
it was hard to think her smile could bring the springtime
       G             Bm/F#
but it did, now it is
C                                G
the green green grass has come up green 
G/F#    Em                       C                D          D/C D/B  D/A
and it's feeling just the way it did  the very first time
 
[Chorus]
        C                G
and she only looks like you 
     C                 G
in a certain kind of light
        C                     G      D   D/C D/B  D/A
when she holds her head just right
 
[Instrumental]
G      Bm/F#
C      G
G/F#   Em     C    D   D/C D/B  D/A
 
[Verse 3]
        G                     Bm/F#
and anymore would stretch the rhyme
C                           G
so let me leave this where i started 
G/F#       Em              C                D       D/C D/B  D/A
and I'm just happy for the first time in a long time
                 G
in a long time.
