Ellie Goulding - Lights

capo on 4th fret
Em D C
i had a way then losing it all on my own
Em D C
i had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
Em D C
and i’m not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat
Em D C
and i’m not keeping now the strength i need to push me
Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em Am
you shine it when i’m alone
Em D
and so i tell myself that i’ll be strong
Em Am
and dreaming when they’re gone
Em D
’cause they’re calling , calling , calling me home
Em D
calling , calling , calling home
Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em D
you shine it when i’m alone

Em D C
noises , i play within my head
Em D C
touch my own skin and hope that i’m still breathing
Em D C
and i think back to when my brother and my sister slept
Em D C
in an unlocked place the only time i feel safe
Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em Am
you shine it when i’m alone
Em D
and so i tell myself that i’ll be strong
Em Am
and dreaming when they’re gone
Em D
’cause they’re calling , calling , calling me home
Em D
calling , calling , calling home
Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em D
you shine it when i’m alone
Em
home

interlude
Em , Am , Em , D ( repeat )

Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em Am
you shine it when i’m alone
Em D
and so i tell myself that i’ll be strong
Em Am
and dreaming when they’re gone
Em D
’cause they’re calling , calling , calling me home
Em D
calling , calling , calling home
Em D
you show the lights that stop me turn to stone
Em D
you shine it when i’m alone

outro
Em , Am ( repeat )
