Looking for the Light

When I was young I was frightened, by shadow monsters on my wall 
    G                          C   Em C  G   Am                  D 
And I was convinced they would get me in the dark, if I slept at all 
  G			     C             Em                 A7sus A7 
I know she was there in her bedroom, so I tip-toed down the hall 
        C       	      D 		     G   C G 
Laid my head on the floor and tried to see under her door 
**CHORUS** 
C 	D	       G 
I was looking for the light 
      C           D                       G 
When it was on I knew everything was alright 
       C                   D                          Em         C 
Before I could knock she'd open the door and I'd look up and seen that 
  C

   G                 C              G                        D 
At 19 I had all the answers thought I could make it on my own 
   G                   C    Em    C     G    Am                     D 
As we were packing she said don't ever forget this is always your home 
     G                    C           Em                 A7sus A7 
Soon I foung a one room apartment has monsters of its own 
        C                 D                   G  C G 
So sometimes I go out and drive by that old house    (Repeat chorus)

G C                G             C           D         G 
  I stood there filled with fear as she was passing away 
C                     G           Am7                 D 
 They said she can't hear you now all we can do is pray 
       C                   D 
As I squeezed her hand she opened her eyes 
     Em                     C 
And smiled for me one last time 
           Am7                D      	         G C D C  
She always knew, when I was looking for the light
