Intro:
Am, F
Verse 1:
Am
I have turned away from you
F
And I am godless
Am
A wasteland of poison
F
A hidden fortress
Am
I have blackened out the stars
F
And hidden frequencies
Am
I have silenced all the waves
F
And forbidden secrecies
Chorus:
Am
To step into your light
F
This dog doesn't bite, oh
Am
I just wanna be your friend
F
You know, I've never been in love before
Em F Am
I've never been in love before
Verse 2: (same chords as verse one)
There is nothing of you now
No ghost, no not a trace
No flower, not a seed
Nor perfume in your place
I have searched amidst
A barren plane of emptiness
Pre-chorus:
Am
I am worthless, It is futile
F G
You're invisible, I am infantile
Chorus: (same chords as first chorus)
So step into your light, oh
This dog doesn't bite, oh
I just wanna be your friend
You know, I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
Verse 3:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/darren_hayes/step_into_the_light_crd.html ]
Am
I have murdered the divine in me
Set the goodness free
F
I have squandered it all
Am
I am less than the sum
I am parts of the whole
F G
There is something missing
Am
There is something I stole
(There is something I stole) [x4]
F, Am, F, G
Bridge:
Am
Why have you forsaken me?
Where do you hide?
F
I feel the betrayal
Simmers, it blisters
Am
It digs down and burrows
F
Deeper inside, more than a try
(I've never been in love before)
G
I cannot deny
(I've never been in love before)
That it...
(I've never been in love before)
It feels like...[x6]
Am, F, Am, F (play these chords as you would in the verse)
(I've never been in love before) [x6]
G
Love
Chorus:
Em
So step into the light, oh
F
This dog doesn't bite, oh
Am
I just wanna be your friend
F
You know that I've never been in love before
I've never been in love before
Em
So step into the light, oh
F
You know this dog doesn't bite, oh
Am
Take hold of my my hand
F
You know, I've never been in love before
Outro:
Em, F, Em, F (hold)
