Dsus4                           Cadd9
        Morning comes too       early, 
        and nighttime falls too late.

    Am/C      E     GaddA   G(1)  C(1)
And sometimes all I want to do is wait.

    Am/C   E         GaddA  G(1)   D(1)      D6   Am7
The shadow I've been hiding in has fled from me today.

Cmaj7             D(2)      D(1) D6                       Em7
      I know it's easier to walk away than look in in the eye.

Am                 G(2)           C(2)
And I will raise a shelter to the sky.

    Am                G(2)              C(2)
And here beneath this star tonight I'll lie.

    Am          G(2)               C(2)     Dsus4(2)
She will slowly yield the light as I awaken from the longest

Solo:  Requires a single slap-back delay of ~200-300 ms.  My timing isn't
       good enough to get it sounding right, or indeed work out exactly 
       what is being played.  What's below is a rough idea of what I think 
       is going on.  To confuse matters even further it sounds as though 
       there are regular pull-offs onto the open G.  Knowing what John 
       Petrucci is capable of, he probably didn't even use a delay !

And now I've only habits left to break.

Tonight I'll still be lying here, surrounded in all the    light.

Morning comes too early and nighttime falls too late
And sometimes all I want to do is wait

The shadow I've been hiding in has fled from me today
I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye

But I will raise a shelter to the sky 
And here beneath this star tonight I'll lie

She will slowly yield the light
As I awaken from the longest night

Dreams are shaking, set sirens waking up tired eyes
With the light the memories all rush into his head
By a candle stands a mirror of his heart and soul she dances
She was dancing thru the night above his bed

And walking to the window he throws the shutters out against the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let light surround you"

It's been a long, long time, he's had a while to think it over
In the end he only sees the change
Light to dark, dark to light, light to dark, dark to light

Heaven must be more than this
When angels waken with a kiss
Sacred hearts won't take the pain
But mine will never be the same

He stands before the window, his shadow slowly fading from the wall
And from an ivory tower hears her call
"Let the light surround you"

Once lost but I was found
When I heard the stained glass shatter all around me
I sent the spirits tumbling down the hill
But I will hold this one on high above me still
She whispers words to clear my mind 
I once could see but now at last I'm blind

I know it's easier to walk away than look it in the eye
But I had given all that I could take
And now I've only habits left to break
Tonight I'll still be lying here Surrounded in all the light
