Verse: Love, you are foolish, you're tired
    Your sleeplessness makes you a liar
    The city is burning, the ocean is turning
    Our only chance is the lighthouse

Passage:Her lover was a sailor, she went and she waited there
    The door locked from the outside
    Lover never
    arrived so she sings there, soft as a siren
    Luring the ships off their
    course, how alarming

    ch:Bm/ch:   ch:Em/ch:   ch:F#/ch:      ch:F#/ch:
    We went in, we climbed up and looked out
    ch:Bm/ch:           ch:Em/ch:
    The door locked from the outside
    F#F#        F#F# last chord is 2 quarters instead of 3:
    Three ghosts in a lighthouse
