Verse 1:
C majorC G+G
The night sky had broken, the new year had spoken
D MajorD E minorEm
I was beside myself, I stood out in the cold
C majorC G+G
In an empty parking lot, my breath was streaming hot
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD
I willed the car to start to bring me home to you
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Lead me back from the darkness like you do
Chorus:
C majorC G+G
Before I knew you, I lived in the rearview
E minorEm D MajorD
To wish back an image of myself I thought was true
C majorC G+G
So now when colors fade and on that day of days
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G D MajorD
I needed you to say it wasn't one to ruin
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Oh and lead me back from the darkness like you do

Verse 2:
C majorC G+G
Headlights and cold rain distorting the dark panes
E minorEm D MajorD
Wipers clicking and my thoughts they followed suit
C majorC G+G
I felt like Willy Loman, the mighty plans I'd spoken
E minorEm D MajorD
Guess they were illusions of a man who dreamed too big
C majorC G+G
But I remember you dancing in autumn when we met
E minorEm D MajorD
You won't believe I saw it then so many years ago
C majorC G+G
There was something about you I struggled to forget
E minorEm D MajorD
My blood was rushing down to you
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
You were leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
E minorEm D MajorD
Leadin' me back from the darkness like you do
A minorAm G+G D MajorD E minorEm
Leading me back like a horse to water knowing I'd refuse
A minorAm G+G D MajorD

'Cause you're a wanderer too
