One Small Star

Verse 1:
C             Em         Am              F            G
When I need to feel you near me I stand in this quiet place
          C           Em  Am              F             G
Where the silver light of countless stars falling on my face
       F        G        C                   F             G
Though they all shine so brightly somehow it comforts me to know
      C        Em         Am              F     G   C
That some that burn the brightest Died an eternity ago

Chorus:
C               Em    Am           F        G      C
 But your light still shines It's one small star to guide me
       C     Em    Am    F       G
And it helps me to hold back the dark
     C       Em    F       G      C
Your light's still shining in my heart

Verse 2:
C      Em   Am          F               G
I'm learning how to live without you  I never thought I could
     C    Em     Am           F              G
And even how to smile again I never thought I would
          F   G            C                   F                 G
And I cherish your heart's memories cause they bring you back to life
        C    Em       Am              F      G      C
Though some caress me gently and some cut me like a knife

Chorus:
C               Em    Am           F        G      C
 But your light still shines It's one small star to guide me
       C     Em    Am    F       G
And it helps me to hold back the dark
     C       Em    F       G      C
Your light's still shining in my heart

Verse 3:
C                Em        Am                   F           G
Can your soul be out there somewhere beyond the infinity of time
  C            Em         Am               F                G
I guess you've found some answers now I'll have to wait for mine
      F       G           C            F                            G
When my light joins with yours one day we'll shine through time and space
    C       Em         Am         F          G         C
And one day fall on a distant age Upon some stranger's face

Chorus:
C               Em    Am           F        G      C
 But your light still shines It's one small star to guide me
       C     Em    Am    F       G
And it helps me to hold back the dark
     C       Em    F       G      C
Your light's still shining in my heart
