Quiet Light

Written by Matt Berninger/Carin Besser/Aaron Dessner/Bryce Dessner/Mike Mills

	  		Intro: B  G#m  F# 
        B  G#m  F# 
  

Verse 1:

B G#m F# I used to fall asleep to you talking to me I don't listen to anything now B G#m F# Nothing to do with us, I'm just so tired of thinking About everything B G#m F# I'm not afraid of being alone I just don't know what to do with my time B G#m F# Between you and me, I thought it would all last A little while longer
tabchorus
E C#m But I'm learning to lie here in the quiet light G#m F# While I watch the sky go from black to grey E C#m Learning how not to die inside a little every time G#m F# I think about you and wonder if you are awake

Verse 2:

B G#m F# You don't know anything, I think about you way more than anything else B G#m F# I'm not that spiritual I still go out all the time to department stores B G#m F# Everything I need, but none of this is getting me anywhere good B G#m F# Between you and me I still fall apart at the thought of your voice
tabchorus
E C#m But I'm learning to lie here in the quiet light G#m F# While I watch the sky go from black to grey E C#m Learning how not to die inside a little every time G#m F# I think about you and wonder if you are awake E C#m And I'm learning to live without the heartache it gives me G#m F# Nothing I wouldn't do for another few minutes E C#m G#m Learning how not to cry every time there's Another sad unbearable morning F# But sometimes there's nothing I can do

Bridge:

C#m I can't help it G#m F# E It's you that I think I hear in the quiet light C#m Am I crazy? G#m F# E You're nowhere near me, guess I don't know what I'm saying C#m G#m F# E Just call me, I'll come to where you are alone in the quiet light C#m G#m I'm always thinking you're behind me B F# And I turn around and you're always there
tabchorus
E C#m But I'm learning to lie here in the quiet light G#m F# While I watch the sky go from black to grey E C#m Learning how not to die inside a little every time G#m F# I think about you and wonder if you are awake E C#m And I'm learning to live without the heartache it gives me G#m F# Nothing I wouldn't do for another few minutes E C#m G#m Learning how not to cry every time there's another sad unbearable morning F# But sometimes there's nothing I can do

Final: E C#m G#m F# E C#m G#m F#
