[Intro]

[Verse I]

C                         Am
Lincoln tried to address, to address
C                            Am          C
Lincoln tried to address Gettysburg that day.
C                                          Am
He was put to the test, make sense of this mess
C        Am        C
Just like you and me.

[Chorus]

         Am
When the light turns on us
C
Bright from darkness
Am               G      C
Eyes need to adjust...

[Verse II]

C                                      Am
He took the stage and did his best, he did his best
C
His words were clear and focused.
              Am       C
On this they all agreed
C                                                    Am           C
Some were moved, some not impressed, not impressed, not impressed
C                            Am          C
Was it too much to digest, too simple to see?


[Chorus]

         Am
When the light turns on us
C
Bright from darkness
Am               G      C
Eyes need to adjust...

C


[Verse III]

     C                                    Am          C
Some times they weigh more than the rest, than the rest
C                                Am              C
You need to see the forest, when all you see are trees
C                                             Am       C
You trust that beating in your chest, in your chest, in your chest
C                                              Am              C
Don’t look back, don’t second guess, don’t go blowing with the breeze.


[Chrous]

         Am
When the light turns on us
C
Bright from darkness
Am               G      C
Eyes need to adjust...
