Verse
[Cmaj7]
I never cared much for moonlit skies
[Ab7]
I never wink back at fireflies
[Cmaj7] [Cmaj7] [B7] [Bb7] [A7]
But now that the stars are in your eyes
[Dm7] [G7] [Cmaj7]
I'm beginning to see the light
Verse
[Cmaj7]
I never went in for afterglow
[Ab7]
Or candlelight on the mistletoe
[Cmaj7] [Cmaj7] [B7] [Bb7] [A7]
But now when you turn the lamp down low
[Dm7] [G7] [Cmaj7]
I'm beginning to see the light
Bridge
[E7]
Used to ramble through the park
[Eb7]
Shadowboxing in the dark
[D7]
Then you came and caused a spark
[Ab7] [G7]
That's a four-alarm fire now
Verse
[Cmaj7]
I never made love by lantern-shine
[Ab7]
I never saw rainbows in my wine
[Cmaj7] [Cmaj7] [B7] [Bb7] [A7]
But now that your lips are burning mine
[Dm7] [G7] [Cmaj7]
I'm beginning to see the light
(repeat as desired)
