Intro:  ch:D/ch: ch:A/ch: ch:Bm/ch: ch:A/ch:
        ch:Bm/ch: ch:A/ch: ch:D/ch: ch:A/ch:

        ch:D/ch:             ch:A/ch:                  ch:Bm/ch:     ch:A/ch:
Verse:  Take what you need while there's time
            ch:D/ch:            ch:A/ch:          ch:Bm/ch:        ch:A/ch:
        The city will be earth in a short while
           ch:Bm/ch:        ch:D/ch:     ch:Bm/ch:           ch:A/ch:
        If I'm not mistaken it's been in flames
               ch:Bm/ch:        ch:A/ch:            ch:D/ch:        ch:A/ch:
        You and I will escape to the seaside

        There is a storm in the distance
        The wind breathing warning of its imminence
        There is a lighthouse five hundred yards down
        You and I will be safe there

        ch:Bm/ch:         ch:Em/ch:       ch:F#/ch:          ch:F#/ch:
passage:There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse
            ch:Bm/ch:               ch:Em/ch:
        She saved me, I was swimming
        ch:F#/ch:         ch:F#/ch:
        So young I almost drowned
        ch:Em/ch:         ch:Bm/ch:   ch:F#/ch:         ch:F#/ch:
        Under the water she sang a story
            ch:Em/ch:        ch:Bm/ch:
        Of losing her lover
       F#           F#      F#   F# (last F# 2 quarters' length instead of 3)
        She calls a warning

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# last chord is 2 quarters instead of 3:
        Three ghosts in a lighthouse
