Subject:  You Light Up My Light  by Leann Rimes
Written by: Joe Brooks
Note:  This was tabbed by Jeannie Shippers, my twin.
This song was originally recorded by Debbie Boone, Pat Boone's daughter.  I
don't know if this is the same key as Leann's. 


You Light Up My Life      LeAnn Rimes

Bbm       Eb       Ab         Fm
So many nights I'd sit by my window
Gm7          C7         Fm     Eb   F7
waiting for someone to sing me his song.
Bbm       Eb      Ab            Fm
So many dreams I kept deep in  side me
G                          Bb7        Fm7  Bb7
Alone in the dark but now you've come  a-long.

CHORUS:
    Eb               Eb7
And you light up my life
             C7           Fm
You give me hope to carry on
      Fm7        Bb7               Eb   Bb  Cm      Fm    Bb7
You light up my days and fill my nights        with song.


Bbm        Eb     Ab          Fm
Rollin' at sea a-drift on the waters
Gm7           C7          Fm    Eb  F7
could it be finally I'm turning for home
Bbm        Eb       Ab        Eb  Fm
Finally a chance to say "Hey! I  love you"
G              Bb     Fm7  Bb7
Never again to be all a-   lone

got to chorus, go to ending

Eb               Eb7
And you light up my life
             C7           Fm
You give me hope to carry on
      Fm7        Bb7               G          Cm
You light up my days and fill my nights with song.
F             Eb       G             Cm   F
It can't be wrong when it feels so right
       Eb  Fm Bb        Ab  Eb Bb        Ab    Eb
'cause you        you light up my-my-my life.
