Lights chords by Ellie Goulding

Chords with lyrics

E minorEm    D MajorD          C majorC
I had a way then losing it all on my own
    E minorEm         D MajorD         C majorC
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
  E minorEm        D MajorD    C majorC
And I’m not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
  E minorEm       D MajorD    C majorC
And I’m not keeping now the strength I need to push me
       E minorEm         D MajorD
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
  E minorEm         A minorAm
You shine It when I’m alone
     E minorEm        D MajorD
And so I tell myself that I’ll be strong
  E minorEm          A minorAm
And dreaming when they’re gone
        E minorEm            D MajorD
’Cause they’re calling, calling, calling me home
E minorEm            D MajorD
Calling, calling, calling home
       E minorEm         D MajorD
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
  E minorEm         D MajorD
You shine It when I’m alone

E minorEm    D MajorD       C majorC
Noises, I play within my head
     E minorEm      D MajorD             C majorC
Touch my own skin and hope that I’m still breathing
  E minorEm       D MajorD    C majorC
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
E minorEm       D MajorD     C majorC
in an unlocked place the only time I feel safe
       E minorEm         D MajorD
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
  E minorEm         A minorAm
You shine It when I’m alone
     E minorEm        D MajorD
And so I tell myself that I’ll be strong
  E minorEm          A minorAm
And dreaming when they’re gone
        E minorEm            D MajorD
’Cause they’re calling, calling, calling me home
E minorEm            D MajorD
Calling, calling, calling home
       E minorEm         D MajorD
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
  E minorEm         D MajorD
You shine It when I’m alone
E minorEm

And so I tell myself that I’ll be strong
  E minorEm          A minorAm
And dreaming when they’re gone
        E minorEm            D MajorD
’Cause they’re calling, calling, calling me home

Calling, calling, calling home

You shine It when I’m alone
