Introduction:  Eb   Gm   F   Gm   Bb   F   Bb  

                         Eb   Gm     F 
I'm turning out the lights
                         Cm   Bb   F 
To remember how to see
                             Bb   F             Eb 
Until a renaissance takes place
                       Gm                                 Dm                           Eb 
And resuscitates the color of paint and divinity
                                   Eb   Gm       F 
As if God hid the building blocks
                 Cm             Gm           F 
Of every beautiful thing
                                 Bb   F       Eb 
In this game of hide and seek
                                   Gm                           Dm                                     Eb7M 
I can't help but think that ordinary has swallowed the key
 Cm                               Eb 
    Bodies fashioned out of dirt and dust
 Gm                           F 
  For a moment we get to be glorious
 Cm                         Bb 
  Ice sculptures adorned in light
 Gm                                   F                                         Cm 
  Sand castles built tall in between the tides
                         Bb                                   Gm 
Maybe I'm hiding behind metaphor
                   F                                                       Cm 
Maybe my heart needs to break to be sure
                                           Eb                   Gm 
One day I'll wear it all on my sleeve
                           F                                         C 
The insignificant with the sacred unique
                                       F9     Am7             G 
But I've fallen in love with a ghost
                             Dm                         C                   G 
And I lost my balance when I needed it most
                                 C                   F 
This blurry photograph is proof
                                     Am                                       Em 
Of what I'm not sure but it feels like truth
                         F9                   Am                     G 
I'm stuck swimming in shadows down here
                       Dm                           C                   G 
It's been forever since I came up for air
                             C                               D 
Flashlight in hand determined to find
                     C                     Em                         C       Em 
Authenticity only poetry could even begin
                     F 
to try to describe
 Dm                             F                               Am 
  Bodies fashioned out of dirt and dust
                               G 
For a moment we get to be glorious
 F9   Am7   G 
                        Get to be glorious
 E   E7   Am               G                   C   G   D 
                    Get to be glorious

                       F9   Am7       G 
What if we already are
                                     E   E7   Am 
Who we've been dying to become
                         C                                 D 
In certain light I can plainly see
                               C             Em 
A reflection of magnificence
 C                     Em 
Hidden in you
                           C 
Maybe even in me
