VERSE:
F#             E
She’s a little lighthouse when she
F#           E
Opens up her huge eyes
    E
And streams of diamonds shoot out
           B                                  F#  F#sus4  F#  F#sus4  F#
'Til we're wading waist deep in her brilliant love----------


VERSE:
F#             E
She’s a little lighthouse when she
F#           E
Opens up her red mouth
    E                            B
And gold word ribbons rope and rodeo
                            F#   F#sus4  F#  F#sus4  F#
The dark clouds in bouquet above----------

BRIDGE:
Bb                     Dm            C#
For how long will this dark age last?
        G#                   A#
For how long must we wait to learn?
F#                          Bbm
Across the black and fossil ocean vast
B                       C#
I spy love and she doth brightly burn
F#   D                 F#          D
Love sure lives in the right house

She’s a little lighthouse when she

Thoughts descending spears of crystal
B                            F#   F#sus4  F#  F#sus4  F#
Build a Jacob’s ladder up to love-----------


VERSE:
F#             E
She’s a little lighthouse when she
F#           E
Opens up her red dress
     E
Show skin of rubber marble
       B                           F#   F#sus4  F#  F#sus4  F#
Lit by knowledge and the fireflies above----------


BRIDGE:
Bb                      Dm             C#
And can others see this splendid beam?
      G#               A#
Or do they navigate in dark?
F#                  Bbm
If you ever want to dock your dream
B                              C#
You’ll need love to guide your fragile ark
F#   D            F#          D
Love sure keeps a bright house
