The Wound Is Where the Light Gets In

[Verse 1]

D                                       G                 D
I was half way up the mountain when the rocks I held gave way
                                        G             A
Came tumbling like an avalanche, to the bottom wher I lay
             Bm                 D
Now with the taste of blood and twist of bone
                   G
My healing could begin


[Chorus]

           D                  A          D                  G
'Cause the wound is where the light, The wound is where the light
    Bm                 A          D
The wound is where the light gets in


[Verse 2]

D                                     G               D
I've stood here like a hostage with a knife held to my vain
                                  G                A
Held captive to the poison that I took to numb the pain
       Bm        D                                  G
'Cause everybody wishes they were born with thicker skin


[Bridge]

     G
It's trickey how the heart works

When the break ups and the big jecks
     D
Make never want to hurt that way again
G                      Em
Maybe I'm naive but in every scare I see
  D                                   A
A place where love is trying to break in
           D                  A
'Cause the wound is where the light


[Verse 3]
D                                G                    D
You can recognise a saint by the scares they don't disguise
                                      G                 A
You can pick out a real sinner by the kindness in their eyes
   Bm                  D                                G
So if you're stumbling in the dark and bleeding at the (shin?)
