Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
All  along the street
 They're holding signs that say
 That I am lost
 And that I  do not  know the way
 I asked the rock
 Sitting in a shade of grey
 I asked the rock
 He didn't have  a thing  to say
 But you  are the only  light I see
 You are the only  light I need
 When everybody  else is sleeping
 You come along  and help me breathe
 When I was a stone
 No one knew that I was there
 I'd sing my song and
 No one ever really cared
 I went to the mountain
 Face all covered in tears
 I wept but
 Mountain didn't seem to hear
 So you are the only light I see
 You are the only light I need
 When everybody else is sleeping
 You come along and help me breathe
 You are the only light I see (x2)
 I love you
 'Till the mountain starts to cry
 I love you
 If I don't know the reason why
 I love you
 Until I do not know my name
 I ask you
 Wouldn't you have done the same
 Oh you are the only light I see
 You are the only light I need
 When everybody else is sleeping
 You come along and help me breathe
 You are the only light I see
 You are the only light I need
 When everybody else is sleeping
 You bring the magic over me
 You are the only light I see (x4)

You are the only light I need
When everybody else is sleeping
You bring the magic over me

You are the only light I see (x4)
