F                                Am
Every word's a new regret if you say it right, right
G                                   C
Every wound can be forgotten in the right light
F                     Am
Oh nostalgia, I don't need you anymore
G                                     C
Cause the salad days are over and the meat is at my door
           F                                           Am
Cause they might try to tell you how you can live your life
                                  G                         C
But don't, don't forget it's your right, to do whatever you like, you like
                [no chord]
Cause you could be your own spotlight, 


F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F                              G        Am
you could be the star, you can shine so bright, 
F
e-o, e-o,
    G                      Am               F                        G
You could be your own, cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break
   Am   F                G         Am                F
To take away that light, somebody, somebody now
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight.


F                               Am
Depression is a little bit like happy hour, right
     G                                      C
It's always gotta be happening somewhere on any given night
F                    Am
Oh nostalgia I don't need you anymore
       G                                C
I just hope my perfect stranger that my kids look more like yours


           F                                           Am
Cause they might try to tell you how you can live your life
                                  G                         C
But don't, don't forget it's your right, to do whatever you like, you like
                [no chord]
Cause you could be your own spotlight, 


F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F                              G        Am
you could be the star, you can shine so bright, 
F
e-o, e-o,
    G                      Am               F                        G
You could be your own, cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break
   Am   F                G         Am                F
To take away that light, somebody, somebody now
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own 
        Csus4                   C
cause I had a little bit of bad luck
    Csus4                          C
Oh, when will this crumbling world stop
       F                                  Am  G
Little sweetness keeps just out of reach
       F                                                       G
Cause compassion is something that they just don't, just don't teach, teach
[no chord]
Cause you could be your own spot light, 


F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F
e-o, e-o
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight, 
F                              G        Am

You could be your own, cause they're gonna tell you all the rules to break
   Am   F                G         Am                F
To take away that light, somebody, somebody now
          G           Am
You could be your own spotlight,
