Biography:
Beth Orton (born Elizabeth Caroline Orton, 14 December 1970, in East Dereham, Norfolk) is a BRIT Award–winning English singer-songwriter, known for her 'folktronica' sound, which mixes elements of folk and electronica. She initially came to notice for her collaborations with William Orbit and the Chemical Brothers in the mid-1990s. However, these were not Orton's first recordings as she had released a solo album, Superpinkymandy, in 1993. Since the album was only released in Japan, it went largely unnoticed by international audiences.

[verse]:
D Bm G
if I ever feel the light again shining down on me
A G D
I dont have to tell you how welcome it would be
Bm G
I felt the light before but I let it slip away
A G D
and I just keep on believing that itll come back someday
[chorus]:
G D
its not the spotlight its not the candlelight
G A D
its not the streetlights of some old street of dreams
G D
it aint the moon light not even the sunlight
G A
but I seen it shining in your eyes
G A D
and you know what I mean
D Bm G
sometimes I try to tell myself the light was never real
A G D
just a fantasy that used to be the way I used to feel
D Bm G
but you and I know better even though its been so long
A G
now if your memory really serves you well youll never tell me no
D

G D

G D

G A
but I seen it shining in your eyes
G A D
and you know what I mean

D [no Bm] G

A G D
and I just live for believing that itll come back someday
G D
its not the spotlight its not the candlelight
G A D

in the D majors, there's plenty of this little hammer-on going on
-----0h2-------|
---3----3--3---|

G is 355433, everything else is open (except maybe in the intro where Bm
