Light Gives Heat by Jars of Clay
Key: EmEm | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

Verse 1:
Em                    A#m
Catch the rain empty hands
                               B
Save the children from their lands
                               Em
Wash the darkness from their skin
                 A#m
Heroes from the west
                            B
We don't know you, we know best

But this is not a test


Chorus:
B                       F#
You treat me like I'm blind
C#         G#             F#            C#
Setting fires around houses on the hill
     G#            B
But light gives heat
B                 F#
You segregate my mind
C#          G#               F#      C#
Burning crosses from your fears, oh
     G#           B     C#     Em
The light gives heat

Verse 2:
Em                              A#m
It's not the way to light their way
                         B 
Poison holes in empty fields
                   Em
Oh, how good it feels
                       A#m
Lower-class, and understate
                       B
Empty promise, empty plate

Chorus:
B                      F#
You treat me like I'm blind
C#         G#             F#           C#
Setting fires around houses on the hill
G#             B
Light gives heat
       B          F#
You segregate my mind
  C#       G#                 F#           C#
Burning crosses from your fears, your fears
      G#          B
But light gives heat, gives heat

Chorus:
Em                     F#
You treat me like I'm blind
C#         G#            F#            C#
Setting fires around houses on the hill
      G#          B
But light gives heat
B                F#
You segregate my mind
C#         G#                 F#     C#
Burning crosses from your fears, oh
     G#           B        
The light gives heat


Bridge:
      B                   F#        C#
Will you teach us how to love?
G#                      F#
To see the things you see
C#                    G#
Walk the road you walked
B
Feel the pain that you feel
   F#              C#
At your feet I kneel,
    G#                F#
I want to see you shine
    C#               G#
See your light not mine
        B          G#
'Cause light gives heat
       B          G#
Your light gives heat
