I am just a [C]stranger, in a promised [C]land
I am only [C]learning a game with the rules I don’t under[Bb]stand
Going round in [C]circles, I’ve been round be[C]fore
I am lost in [C]so many ways
I can walk no [Bb]more
I can walk no [C]more

I am just a [C]drifter, in an open [C]sea
But no matter [C]how much I try, the tide will not turn for [Bb]me
Going round in [C]circles, till I reach the [C]shore
I am blown by [C]so many winds
I can take no [Bb]more
I can take no [C]more

[Am]Light of the [Am]world, [Am]I stand a[F]lone
Cause I could not see the [Am]light of the [Am]world
[Am]Show me the [F]fire, in a true believer’s [C]eye

I am just a [C]dreamer, when I close my [C]eyes
I can fly so [C]close to the sun, that I can not see it [Bb]rise
Going round in [C]circles, in a silent [C]sky
I am lost for [C]so many words
I can not say [Bb]why
I can not say [C]why

[Am]Light of the [Am]world, [Am]I stand a[F]lone
Cause I could not see the [Am]light of the [Am]world
[Am]Show me the [F]fire, in a true believer’s [C]eye

Just a [C]traveller, on an endless [C]flight
But no matter [C]which way I turn, I journey into the [Bb]night
Going round in [C]circles, till the mountains [C]fall
To believe in [C]so many truths
Makes no sense at [Bb]all
Makes no sense at [C]all

[Am]Light of the [Am]world, [Am]I stand a[F]lone
Cause I could not see the [Am]light of the [Am]world
[Am]I was a[F]fraid, cause I could not see the [Am]light of the [Am]world
[Am]Show me the [F]fire, in a true believer’s [C]eye
