Guiding Light - Foy Vance ft. Ed Sheeran
 
Capo 6
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
          C
Well the road is wide,
                   G
And waters run on either side, 
                         D
And my shadow went with fading light, 
                  G
Stretching out towards the night. 
 
            C
'Cause the Sun is low,
                         G
And I yet have still so far to go, 
                    D
My lonely heart is beating so, 
              G
Tired of the wonder. 
 
               C
But there's a sign ahead, 
                             G
Though I think it's the same one again, 
                          D
And I'm thinking 'bout my only friend, 
                  G
And so I find my way home. 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
  C                 G
When I need to get home 
                   D
You're my guiding light, 
              G
You're my guiding light. 
 
  C                 G
When I need to get home 
                   D
You're my guiding light, 
              G
You're my guiding light.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
         C
Well the air is cold, 
                     G
And yonder lies my sleeping soul, 
                  D
By the branches broke like bones, 
                       G
This weakened tree no longer holds. 
 
          C
But the night is still, 
                    G
And I have not yet lost my will, 
                       D
Oh and I will keep on moving till, 
        G
Till I find my way home. 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
  C                 G
When I need to get home 
                   D
You're my guiding light, 
              G
You're my guiding light. 
 
  C                 G
When I need to get home 
                   D
You're my guiding light, 
              G
You're my guiding light.
 
When I need to get home,
You're my guiding light,
You're my guiding light. (x6)
 
 
[Outro]
 
                              C
So leave me whole, leave me strong
                      G
Like the road I walk on
 
C                   G
When I need to get home, 
                    D
You're my guiding light, 
                    G
You're my guiding light. (x2)

Can someone please upload the chords for the rest of the Joy of Nothing album. There just aren't enough Foy chords available online and that in itself is probably the reason for the terrorists attacks around the world.

+17

the alternate way to play this (like he does in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO50jHl2LLY) is open d tuning, capo 4, with the chords D, A, E (instead of C G D)

there would be less terrorism and wars in general if there were more Foy in the world!!!
