D  Am  D  Am

[Verse]
D      Am
Leaves turning
D                        Am
Blowing down the streets blind
D             Am
Please, don't talk to me
D
I'll let you pass right through me
         Am
If you'd only leave me be

[Chorus]
        D                              Am
        The light that falls among the trees
        D                              Am
        The light that falls among the trees

[Interlude]

D  Am  D  Am


[Verse]

D             Am
Breathe, keep breathing
D                 Am
Hang upon the air, free
D                  Am
An alien son, last living thing on earth
D
A shadow of a vision
       Am
In the ruins of a church

[Interlude]
D  Am  D  Am

[Chorus]
        D                              Am
        The light that falls among the trees
        D                              Am
        The light that falls among the trees
        D      Am
        Light, trees
        D                              Am
        The light that falls among the trees

[Verse]
C
Sleeping for a while on the burning sand
                                   G
Waking up sleeping in a foreign land
C
Drinking for a while just to steady your hand
                                            G
Waking up shaking on the burning desert sands
C
People like you don't satisfy my needs
                                 G
I much prefer the company of trees
C
Coming from the woods in the electric rain
                                    G
Isolation years are driving me insane
C
So can you reach across to me
                      G
Lighten up my life, oh
C
So can you reach across to me
                                 G
Lighten up my, lighten up my life
                                      C
Ain't it right, please don't make it wrong
                     G
Please don't make it wrong
                     C
Please don't make it wrong
                     G
Please don't make it wrong
               C         G    C  G  C  G  C
Brighten up my life, life, life
