MisterWives - Let the Light In
Just a note about the chord placement.. they are placed to show where the chord change happens
in relation to the melody, NOT where the synth stab hits. The synth comes in 2 beats after
the chord changes. Listen for the bass note to change instead. To sound as close to the song
as possible you can play that rhythm like this:
1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 | 1 2 3 4 |
e|-------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|

[Verse]
C Am
If I, could take you to a place

Where all worries would erase

Oh we’d leave this world behind

Release, all the weight on burdened chests

A foreign state to feel weightless

Let’s dive, into waters open wide

That will wash away our cries

Oh we’d leave this world behind

The things, worthwhile, you can’t see them with your e-e-eyes
Am D
The thing you need isn’t something you can b-u-uuy
[Verse]
C
Let’s sing, until our lungs give out and
Am C
bring a new hope that’s screaming
Am
This world needs to be revived
C Am
Take aim, and ignite a burning flame
C
Let it run till none remains
Am
This world needs to be revived
[Pre-Chorus]
