[G]Sweetest surrender of winter
[G]She put up her flag, it is waving
[Am]The thunder of summer is rumbling in[G]
[G]And I haven't seen you in days
[G]And my, how that feeling has changed
Oh, I [Am]have been homesick for you since we met [G]
[Am]I have been homesick for you

[G]I've got to take to the sky
[G]And I'll tell you what that means for you and I
If I d[Am]ie it's for [G]you
If I d[Am]ie it's for [G]you

[C]I never lived 'til I l[G]ived in your light
And my[Am] heart never beat like it[C] does at the[D] sight
Of [C]you baby blue, God [G]blessed your life
[Am]I do not live 'less I[C] live in your l[G]ight
[Am]I do not live 'less I[C] live in your l[G]ight

[G]The realest thing I ever felt
[G]Was the blood on the floor and the love in your yell
[Am]I was a child before[G]
[Am]The day that I met Eleanor

[G]Kiss of the wind in the hill

The clearness of morning, the late evening thrill
[Am]Blurry and gray like the roa[G]r
[Am]The wheels on the highway, above them I soa[G]r

[G]When I'm in the sweet daughter's eyes
[G]My heart is now ruined for the rest of all time
[Am]There's no part of it left to give [G]
[Am]There's no part of it left to give [G]

[C]I never lived 'til I l[G]ived in your light
And my[Am] heart never beat like it[C] does at the[D] sight
Of [C]you baby blue, God [G]blessed your life
[Am]I do not live 'less I[C] live in your l[G]ight
[Am]I do not live 'less I[C] live in your l[G]ight
[Am]I do not live            [C]                              [G]
