Lights

I had a (G#m)way (F#)then,

losing it all (E)on my own.

I had a (G#m)heart then,

but the queen has been (E)overthrown.

(C#m7)And I'm not sleeping (F#)now;

the dark is too hard (C#m7)to beat.

slept And I'm not keeping (F#)now the strength I need to (C#m7)push me.

You show the (G#m)lights that stop me (F#)turn to stone.

You (E)shine it when I'm (C#m7)alone.

And so I (G#m)tell myself that (F#)I'll be strong

and (E)dreaming when they're (C#m7)gone,

'cause they're calling, calling, (F#)calling me home,

calling, calling, (C#m7)calling home.

You show the (G#m)lights that stop me (F#)turn to stone;

you (E)shine it when I'm (C#m7)alone.

(G#m)Noises (F#)I play within my head;

touch my (G#m)own skin,

and hope that I'm still breathing.

And I think back to (F#)when my brother and my (C#m7)sis beat.

slept And I'm an old long (F#)place;

the only time I (C#m7)felt safe.

You show the (G#m)lights that stop me (F#)turn to stone.

You (E)shine it when I'm (C#m7)alone.

And so I (G#m)tell myself that (F#)I'll be strong and (E)dreaming when they're (C#m7)gone,

'cause they're calling, calling, (F#)calling me home,

calling, calling, (C#m7)calling home.

You show the (G#m)lights that stop me (F#)turn to stone;

you (E)shine it when I'm (C#m7)alone.

(G#m)Noises (F#)I play within my head;

touch my (G#m)own skin,

and hope that I'm still breathing.

And I (Lights,
