The Rolling Stones
The Lantern
(Jagger/Richards)
E G#m A B A
We...in our present life...
E G#m A F#7 B7
knew...that the stars were right......
E B
So if you are the first to go
C#m F#
You'll leave a sign to let me know
E E7
Oh, tell me so, please...
A F#7 B A
carry the lantern light........
E G#m A B A
You...cross the sea of night...
E G#m A F#7 B7
Free...from the spell of flight......
E B
Your cloak you wear is a spirit shroud
C#m F#
You'll wake me in my sleeping hours
E E7
Like a cloud, please...
A F#7 B A
carry the lantern high........
E G#m A B A
Me...in my sorry plight...
E G#m A F#7 B7
you...waiting every night......
E B
My face it turns a deathly pale
C#m F#
You're talking to me through your veil
E E7
I hear you wail, so please...
A F#7 B A
carry the lantern light........
E B
The servants sleep, the doors are barred
C#m F#
You hear the stopping of my heart
E E7 A
You never part, so please...carry the lantern high!
