The Light Before We Land Acoustic chords by The Delgados
Guitar chords with lyrics
Light Before We Land by The Delgados Standard Tuning, No Capo For the F/B chords, play x23210, and pull off to x20210. Alternatively You can just play E, slide your third/ring finger to the third fret, and then remove it for an E7 chord. Playing an E and sliding down a fret also sounds fine (to me). [Intro] A C#m G Bm A C#m G Bm E F/B E F/B
[Verse 1]
A Bm E
In cases such as these I'd like a hand
A Bm E
Don't wake me up without a master plan
C#m G/B
With sight and sound becoming fragile
C#m Bm
Don't you understand?
C#m G/B E
When things that once were beautiful are bland
[Chorus]
A C#m G Bm
And when I feel like I can feel once again
A C#m
Let me stay awhile
G Bm
Soak it in awhile
A C#m G Bm
If we can hold on we can fix what is wrong
A C#m
Buy a little time
G Bm
For this head of mine
E
Haven for us

In truth there is no better place to be
A Bm E
Than falling out of darkness still to see

Without a premonition, could you

Tell me where we stand?

I'd hate to lose this light before we land
[Chorus]

Soak it in awhile
