Verse:
                    C        G
The way is dark up ahead of me
                     C       D
The way is dark and I cannot see
       Em       A7        C
What I love the most, is a flashlight beam
         G      C          D      G
Lighting up the way when I cannot see

Verse:
                        C    G
The way unfolds like an open hand
                      C       D
The way unfolds like I didn't plan
          Em        A7         C
And only in looking back do we understand
         G       C          D    G
That the way was true as an open hand

Instrumental:
G  D G     C     G   D  C G

Verse:
                              C            G
Over trials and trouble I've already come
                           C           D
And the net appeared when I needed one
        Em      A7           C
Yet the road is dark and the ground is rough
         G      C                 D   G
Most the time a flashlight has to be enough

Instrumental:
G  D G     C     G   D  C G     Em

Bridge:
        A7          C         D     Em
We move forward one step at a time
              A7       C             D
Wide-eyed and hopeful, lost and half blind
   Em         A7             C          D
Mistake by mistake, we ought learn to be kind

Verse:
N.C.       G                  C  G
There's so much to see and to realise
                                      C        D
If I could close my mouth and open up my eyes
        Em         A7               C
And the world will tell us more than enough lies
          G        C          D          G
But we'll find our way with a small flashlight

Outro:
G  D G     C     G   D  C G
G  D G     C     G   Am   G
