Life Is Looking Up Tab par Forgive Durden

[Verse]
 F
Could this be the day I have waited for
                      Am
When all my hard work doesn't go ignored?
 C
Maybe she was right, they will realize
 G
I can change the world, open up their eyes

[Verse]
 F
They know I am more than some eager blood
                      Am
Not some average bones, I believe in love
 C
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
 G
I will change this world, baby this is it


[Instrumental]
F Am C G 

[Verse]
 F
I can see it now, all the colors smear
                    Am
Up and down the page, but the shapes are there
 C
I will build the lamps in this reverie
 G
Then they'll understand this was meant for me

[Instrumental]
F

[Verse]
  F            Am
This is my fate
 C                     G
I can almost hear them say

[Chorus]
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine

Let them burn so bright
 Dm   F         Dm
Open all our eyes, shower us in light
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine

Let them burn so bright
 F
Set the sky ablaze
 Am
Fill the night with paint
 G7
Smother all the shade
 Dm
Flood it through my blood
 Dm
Breathe it through my lungs
 Dm
Give us all your love

[Instrumental]
F Am C G

[Verse]
 F
They know I am more than some eager blood
                      Am
Not some average bones, I believe in love
 C
I just want to prove I deserve this gift
 G
I will change this world, baby this is it

[Verse]
 F
I can see it now floating like a dream
                  Am
Right above my head
               C
Perfect symmetry

Lines in harmony
                G
I can see his face

When he sees the lamps

I can hear him say

[Chorus]
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine

Let them burn so bright
 Dm   F         Dm
Open all our eyes, shower us in light
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine

Let them burn so bright
 F
Set the sky ablaze
 Am
Fill the night with paint
 G7
Smother all the shade
 Dm
Flood it through my blood
 Dm
Breathe it through my lungs
 Dm
Give us all your love

[Instrumental]
Am Dm F F/G

[Bridge]
 Am                  Dm
Dream with your eyes closed
        F               F/G
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones

 Am                            Dm
All the plans pirouette right through my mind become set
           F                       F/G
The lines become definite, glowing hues fill this vignette
           Am                               Dm
Tall and proud, the lamps will stand built from these two very hands
    F                    F/G
No one will be able to deny my skill, nor love for you

(Dream with your eyes closed

Try and pluck the pearls from your bones)

     Am         F         Dm
You dream with your eyes closed
         Am        F                Dm
Try and pluck the pearls from your bones, oh

[Chorus]
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine
 Dm   F         Dm
Open all our eyes, shower us in light
 F      Am        G7
Let the lamps shine

Let them burn so bright
 F
Set the sky ablaze
 Am
Fill the night with paint
 G7
Smother all the shade
 Dm
Flood it through my blood
 Dm
Breathe it through my lungs
 Dm
Give us all your love

[Outro]
F Am Dm (x2)
