Light Phish edited by Saint shakedown_04092@yahoo.com

I made a few edits to the one below.

Intro: B -> E

Chorus: B F# C#m E I can’t see the light between me and my mind B F# A E I can feel the memories fall---- behind B E And the light is growing brighter now B E And the light is growing brighter now

Verse 1: B E F#m E I see the future is less and less there B G#m F# and the past has vanished in the air F#m E and I’m left in the now F#m E with a wondrous glow C#m B I think I’m still me D but how------ A would you know------

Verse ending: E A D A

Repeat Chorus

Verse 2: B E F#m E It takes a few moments of whirling around B G#m F# ‘till your feet finally leave the ground F#m E and fending off fears F#m E and heeding the call C#m B and finally waiting D for nothing------- A at all--------

Verse ending: E A D A

Repeat Chorus

Repeat: B E And the light is growing brighter now…

The backup vocals are in 2 sections (below).
Fish sings #1, Mike/Page sing #2, while Trey sings the main vamp above. The chords below are there to illustrate “where” the words fall in relation to the chords above…hope it makes sense.

E B
1:(Fantasies unfiltered) 2:(Purify our soul) E B 1:(Obstacles are stepping stones) 2:(Guide us to our goal)

Light/intro to solo:

The trick to playing this in time is to do the first 4 pretty quickly (almost without regard to the timing of the rest of the song), wait a split second, then finish the last 2 and bend up to that Bb.

B -> E (A bunch of times. If you know the song you know what I mean.) B F# I can’t see the light between A E me and my mind B F# I can feel the memories A E fall---- behind B E And the light is growing brighter now B E And the light is growing brighter now B E A E I see the future is less and less there B G#m F# and the past has vanished in the air A E and I’m left in the now A G#m with a wondrous glow Dbm B I think I’m still me D but how------ A would you know------ E A D A B F# I can’t see the light between A E me and my mind B F# I can feel the memories A E fall---- behind B E And the light is growing brighter now B E And the light is growing brighter now B E
