Twinkling Lights chords by Annalise Emerick

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
B
There was a place in Maine,

not that long ago
Abm
Where we would hide away,

for several months or so.
E
Tucked beneath the pines,
     B
and under summer skies,
    Gb
a bunch of twenty somethings running barefoot every night.
     B
And some of us were new,

and some had been for years.
      Abm
And a few of us found love,

all of us had fears.
      E
But every single night,

we'd gather by the fire,
    Gb
and sing away the night.

Chorus:
                        B   E            B             Gb
And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,
         Abm            E
we still have all our stories,
       B           Gb
like stars in the sky.
              Abm    E              B          Gb
And we will always remember how we lit up the night.
     Abm            E
Oh, summers by the lake,
        B       Gb         B E B Gb
like a million twinkling lights...


Verse 2:
        B
And the days were only measured by the sun's rise and fall,
       E                                       Abm
and we spent our nights out searching for the meaning of it all.
E
Falling deep in love,

sneaking out at night,
Gbm
somehow it just felt right.


Chorus:
                        B   E            B             Gb
And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,
         Abm            E
we still have all our stories,
       B           Gb
like stars in the sky.
              Abm    E              B          Gb
And we will always remember how we lit up the night.
     Abm            E
Oh, summers by the lake,
        B       Gb         B E B Gb
like a million twinkling lights...
           B E B Gb
Twinkling lights...


Verse 3:
     B               Gb
Well I never saw it coming,
                     B
but now I'll always know,
                           Abm
that summer is more than freedom,

and love will come and go.
    E
We may not have it now,
    B
but we had it then.
         Gb
We will never be the same,

no matter how it ends.
         B
Because when we've all grown old,

living far away.
Abm
On our darkest days,

we will remember Maine.
              E
Cuz there's something about a fire,
       B
and a couple rounds of beer.
           Gb
And we'll tell em all our dreams,

love for all to hear.


Chorus:
                        B   E            B             Gb
And oh, when the fire burns out and the embers all die,
         Abm            E
we still have all our stories,
       B           Gb
like stars in the sky.
              Abm    E              B          Gb
And we will always remember how we lit up the night.
     Abm            E
Oh, summers by the lake,
        B       Gb         B E B Gb
like a million twinkling lights...

Twinkling lights...

Twinkling lights...
           B E B Gb
Twinkling lights...
           Abm E B
Twinkling lights.
