Hopefully this clears things up with this song



In the 2nd Verse you hear a guitar
This is the Piano in the background playing these Pulloffs a couple
times with the piano

(Verse 1)
She got the call today, One out of the gray
And when the smoke cleared, It took her breath away
She said she didn't believe, It could happen to me
I guess we're all one phone call from our knees
We're gonna get there soon

If every building falls, And all the stars fade
We'll still be singing this song, The one they can't take away
I'm gonna get there soon, She's gonna be there too
Cryin' in her room, Prayin' Lord come through
We're gonna get there soon


(Chorus)
C
Oh it's your light, Oh it's your way
Fmaj7
Pull me out of the dark, Just to shoulder the weight
Dm7 G5
Cryin' out now, From so far away
Fmaj7 C G5
You pull me closer to looooooooooove
Am Fmaj7 C G5
Closer to looooooooooooooove

(Verse 2) [Pulloffs added]

Meet me once again, Down off Lake Michigan
Where we could feel the storm blowin' down with the wind
And don't apologize, For all the tears you've cried
You've been way too strong now for all your life
Famj7 C Famj7
I'm gonna get there soon, You're gonna be there too
Am Fmaj7 G5
Cryin' in your room, Prayin' Lord come through

We're gonna get there soon


(Chorus)

C
Oh it's your light, Oh it's your way
Fmaj7
Pull me out of the dark, Just to shoulder the weight
Dm7 G5
Cryin' out now, From so far away
Fmaj7 C G5
You pull me closer to looooooooooove
Am Fmaj7 C G5
Closer to looooooooooooooove



(Bridge) [Refer to outro]

Cause you are all that I've waited for all of my life
(We gonna get there)
You are all that I've waited for all of my life

C
You pull me closer to love, ooooh hooooo
Dm7
Closer to love, ooooh hooooo
Fmaj7 C G5
Pull me closer to looooooooooooooove
Famj7 C G5
Pull me closer to love, oooh hooooo
