Intro: Em
Em D C D
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again
Em D C D
The light that all men seem to fear
C D G D C
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay
Am
And people kept away
F Em
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring
D
When the morning comes
C D Em
And on and on that light returns again
C D Em
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain
D C D Em D C
Help me
Em D C D
I took the old path down, climbing over rocks and stones
Em D C D
The place I knew when I was young
C D G D C
And in my fear I had to carry on
Am
Where no one else had gone
F Em
Looking in a heart of darkness from above
D
To the man inside
C D Em
I took my chance and set off for the light
C D Em C D Em
And started on the journey of my life
Em Bm Em D
Em C
And in the darkest hour, the light was calling me
D Em
Through the doorway to another world
Em C
And there below me, I saw all the days of my life
Am B Em
Till the moment I stood on the shore, world's away
C D Em
This was my destiny, to be back here in another time
Em C
And all around me I saw the faces that I knew
Am B
Reaching out, there is nothing to fear
Em C D Em Em C Am B Em
World's away, come with me
Em D C D
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again
Em D C
The light that all men seem to fear
D C D C D C D Em
Come with me, come with me, come with me
