LOVER OF THE LIGHT - MUMFORD & SONS
TUNING: D-A-D-F#-A-D
NO CAPO
Intro:
"And in the middle of the night I may watch you go"
"There'll be no value in the strength of walls that I have grown"
"There'll be no confort in the shade of the shadows thrown"
"But I'd be yours if you'd be mine"
Now the strumming starts, listen to the song for it

A2 [2x0100] (I don't know the name of this chord, so I'll call it A2]
Verse 1:
[D] Stretch out my life and [G]pick the [D]seams out
Take what you like but c[G]lose my [A]years and [Bm]eyes
[G]Watch me s[D]tumble[A2] o-[D/F#]ver and[A2] o-[D]ver
[D] I have done wrong, you [G]build your [D]tower
But call me home and [G]I will [A]build a [Bm]throne
And [G]wash my [D]eyes out[A2] ne[D/F#]ver [A2] a-[D]gain
Chorus 1:
[D] But love the one you [G]hold
And I'll be your [A]goal
To have and to [Bm]hold
A lover of the[D] light
Verse 2 (From "With skin too tight..." to "breathe in and breathe out") is the same of
the 1st.
Chorus 2 is always the same
Bridge is like the intro, but there's a new line between "Of the shadows thrown" and
"But I'd be yours if you'd be mine":
