Bm                
In the beginning, 
  A             G
there was one source of light
          D                 Em
It would die and come back every night
       G            A
As a woman showing off her thighs
        F#m
Just a little bit at a time


Bm               
In the beginning
A                     G                  D   
Everyone bowed their heads towards the light
                      Em                G
They would dance and eat their friends alive
               A
We were not happy then
             F#m
These were simpler times


Bm          A
Now we all play
            G     
We're the moth, 
  D
we're the flame
           Em
We were aware of the danger
  G         A
We could not keep away
             Bm 
My eyes are open


Bm A G D Em Em G A (ish)


Bm
In the beginning
A                  G
I was standing out in the yard
         D                 Em
with my father pointing up at the stars
              G                      A
and I asked, "Do you think there is life on Mars?
          F#m
Is their life like ours?"


      Bm        A
From here I see a light left on
       G                     D
in a house like mine and out in the lawn
          Em                   G
There's a man like you and a smaller one
         A
I looked in the mirror
        F#m
I have seen my son


Bm     A
Oh, I know
         G             D
How the universe, it shows itself
          Em              G          A
But it's always getting bigger like you
Bm     A         G             D
I was told that I'd grow up to be myself
     Em                 G     A
I thought I would get bigger too


Bm G Bm G D Em G


Bm                            G
Look what I have found (look what I have found) (x2)
     D                         Em              G
An artificial light, come and gather around
Bm                              G
This is why we have lovers and why we need the fighters
Bm                             G
This is why the arms race and particle colliders
D                               Em                    G
Mine is a humble flame. Just a little, white lighter 


Bm G Bm G D Em 

(slower) G Bm A G

                  D       Bm
And it belongs to me
                  A       G
And it belongs to me
                  D      Bm       A
And it belongs to me


D G A G


G                   D          Bm
I woke up in the morning
                         A           G
To a pale light tangled in your hair
                    D         Bm
And I never wake before you
                            A               G
But this time I caught you sleeping there


                   D         Bm
Yes, you are my sunlight
                   A
You are my last breath of air
                  G
I would try to hold it
                          D
I would try to keep the moment
                           Bm
Like a photograph of the sunset
                              A
Like a little kid with a bug net
                            G
Like a dying man, I swear


               D                   Bm
You belong to me, you belong to me
                       A                       G
If you belong to anyone then you belong to me
                         D
But I have no other place to keep you safe
               Bm                    A
But in my shaky, ever shaking melody


G
The light goes off
D
hope it comes back on
Bm
I'll be here
A
In my familiar haunts
G
With a empty jar
D
and a stolen song
Bm
Wait for the light
A (hold)
To come back on
