Quiet Light Chords & Lyrics - The National

[INTRO]
[B] [G#m] [F#]
[B] [G#m] [F#]

[VERSE 1]
[B] I used to [G#m]fall asleep to you [F#]talking to me, I don't listen to anything now
[B] Nothing to [G#m]do with us, I'm [F#]just so tired of thinking about everything
[B] I'm not a[G#m]fraid of being a[F#]lone, I just don't know what to do with my time
[B] Between you and [G#m]me, I thought it would [F#]all last a little while longer

[CHORUS]
But I'm learning to [E]lie here in the quiet [C#m]light
While I watch the s[G#m]ky go from black to g[F#]rey
Learning how not to [E]die inside a little every [C#m]time
I think about you and wo[G#m]nder if you are a[F#]wake

[VERSE 2]
[B] You don't know [G#m]anything, I [F#]think about you way more than anything else
[B] I'm not that s[G#m]piritual I [F#]still go out all the time to department stores
[B] Everything[G#m] I need, but n[F#]one of this is getting me anywhere good
[B] Between you and[G#m] me I still fall a[F#]part at the thought of your voice

[CHORUS]
But I'm learning to [E]lie here in the quiet [C#m]light
While I watch the s[G#m]ky go from black to g[F#]rey
Learning how not to [E]die inside a little every [C#m]time
I think about you and wo[G#m]nder if you are a[F#]wake
And I'm learning to [E]live without the heartache it [C#m]gives me
Nothing I wouldn't [G#m]do for another few [F#]minutes
Learning how not to [E]cry every time there's [C#m]another sad unbearable m[G#m]orning
But sometimes there's[F#] nothing I can do

[BRIDGE]
I can't [C#m]help it
It's[G#m] you that I think I [F#]hear in the quiet [E]light
Am I [C#m]crazy?
You[G#m]'re nowhere near me, guess [F#]I don't know what I'm [E]saying
Just [C#m]call me, I'll [G#m]come to where you are a[F#]lone in the quiet [E]light
I'm [C#m]always thinking you're be[G#m]hind me
And I turn a[B]round and you're always [F#]there

[CHORUS]
But I'm learning to [E]lie here in the quiet [C#m]light
While I watch the s[G#m]ky go from black to g[F#]rey
Learning how not to [E]die inside a little every [C#m]time
I think about you and wo[G#m]nder if you are a[F#]wake
And I'm learning to [E]live without the heartache it [C#m]gives me
Nothing I wouldn't [G#m]do for another few [F#]minutes
Learning how not to [E]cry every time there's [C#m]another sad unbearable m[G#m]orning
But sometimes there's[F#] nothing I can do
