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)

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.
