Lighthouse

Lighthouse
By William Prince


INTRO
[C] [G] [Am / F / ] [C / G / ] [Am]


VERSE 1
A [C] ship in the harbor will always stay safe; tied [F] up to a dock ain't why it was [G] made. It craves [Am] wind through the sails, wood on the waves, [G] paired to the great unknown.


VERSE 2
And [C] one or two fathoms there live the spoils, but [F] the price of the barrel ain't worth the [G] oil. When the [Am] seasons over, steer it towards home through [G] the peace of someplace to go.


CHORUS
And I need you [F] now, no [C] other— [G] go ahead, get [F] loud like [C] thunder, the [G] storm's coming [F] down. You're my [G] lighthouse, you [Am] save my [F] soul. [G]


VERSE 3
Magenta [C] sky in the morning, less gentle by noon means the [F] whitecaps will surely kick the [G] heel of the moon and the [Am] stars, they're like ivory, [G] placed there to guide me home.


CHORUS
And I need you [F] now, no [C] other— [G] go ahead, get [F] loud like [C] thunder, the [G] storm's coming [F] down. You're my [G] lighthouse, you [Am] save my [F] soul. [G]


INTERLUDE
You save my [Am] soul [ / F / ] [C / G / ] [G]
You save my [Am] soul [ / F / ] [C / G / ]


BRIDGE (2x)
[F] You keep [C] waiting on [G] me, can't keep [Am] waiting on [F] me—why you [C] waiting on [G] me? I'm [Am] gone.


OUTRO
[ / F / ] [C / G / ] [Am]
