Am G F C G*
Words mean more at night
Am G F
Like a song
Fm C D
And did you ever notice
F Fm C
The way light means more than it did all day long



Am G F C G*
Words mean more at night
Am G F
Light means more
Fm C D
Like your hair and your face and your smile
F Fm C
And our bed and the dress that you wore


F Fm C


F Fm C
So I'll send you my words
F Fm C
From the corners of my room
F Fm C D
And though I write them by the light of day
F Fm C
Please read them by the light of the moon


F Fm C


Am G F C G*
And I wish I could leave my bones
Am G F
And my skin
F Fm C D
And float over the tired, tired sea
F Fm C
So that I could see you again



F Fm C


Am G F C G*
Maybe you would leave too
Am G F
And we'd blindly pass each other
F Fm C D
Floating over the ocean blue
F Fm C
Just to find the warm bed of our lover

And I'll send you my words

From the corners of my room
F Fm C D
And though I write them by the light of day
F Fm C
Please read them by the light of the moon
F Fm C
Please read them by the light of the moon
F Fm C
Please read them by the light of the moon
