Better Than Ezra - Turn Up The Bright Lights
If this isn't 100% correct, it's damn close. I'm not sure of all the correct
chord voicings, so I chose what sounded best to me. When I saw Kevin Griffin play
this live, he played in the same key but without a capo and with different
chords. This still sounds closest to the CD version, imo. Have fun playing this
great song! Rate/comment if you like this tab or have suggestions to improve it.

[Verse]
It's a lot like falling, taking that first step onto the street
The whole night before you, spreading out like a technocolored dream
So take this city into your arms, and hold it like a kiss
Don't it feel like flying, darling what could be better than this?
[Chorus]
Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above Île Saint-Louis
Turn up the bright lights
[Verse]
On a Paris morning, long before the sun dared to rise
Walking on the river, reflecting diamonds in your eyes
So take this city and catch your breath, and listen to her song
'Cause she moves like music, darling but in a moment she'll be gone
[Chorus]
Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above Île Saint-Louis
Turn on the mystery, there's no other place to be
It's only you and me beneath this perfect sky
[Bridge]

Turn on the bright... lights...
--
Turn on the bright... lights...
So take this city and catch your breath, and hold it like a kiss
[Chorus]
Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above Île Saint-Louis
Turn on the mystery, there's no other place to be
It's only you and me beneath this perfect sky
Turn up the bright lights, light up the world tonight
Shine like the stars shine above Île Saint-Louis
Turn up the bright lights, light up my world tonight
