      C               Am
When pure hearts and stumble
    F            Gsus4 G
In my hands they crumble
    Am G/B         C             F
And fragile and stripped to the core
         C       G   C
I can't hurt you anymore

Loved by numbers
You're losing life's wonder
Touch like strangers; detached
I can't feel you anymore

Chorus:
     F   G      Am            F
And sunshine, trapped in our hearts
          C
It could rise again
         F         G
But I'm lost and crushed
     Am          F
I'm cold and confused with
    Dm      G            C
no guiding light left inside

          F/C      C
You were guiding, light, oooh oooh ooh woah

Am  C/B  C   F  C G C
Ho, Ho, Ho, Haaaaaaaaa

Chorus:
And come from and won't come
befouled I still reach for you
But I'm lost and I'm crushed
I'm cold and confused but
not guiding light left inside

          F/C       C
You're my guiding, light
          F/C       C
You're my guiding, light
            F/C      Fm            C
There is no guiding, light left inside
            F/C     Fm        C
There's no guiding light in us
