[Intro]

Am Am Am Am
(just guitar)


[Verse 1]
Am            Am
Only in early mornings or when it rains
C             Dm             Am             Am
You notice the spider webs a ghost's necklace
Am             Am
The blackness of trees an image burnt on a TV
C             Dm             Am             Am
A shadow a fog over everything
Am            Am
The cracks in the pavement walk like an acrobat
C         Dm
Falling with each step
Am                   Am
Its so surprising I never even noticed
C            Dm                Am      Am (A-B-C)
That yellow bird on your wrist


[Chorus]
C              Dm        Am     Am
Beautiful white sheet of lace
C              Dm        Am     Am
Embroidered no one really cared
C          Dm        Am     Am
Before it was lifted
C    C
Oh lighthouse please
Dm  Dm
Please please see me


[Instrumental]
Am   Am


[Verse 2]
N.C
The wind made a harp of the sun burnt grass
C                Dm            Am    Am
Even in silence no one listens
Am                   Am
Your childhood town is so small up here
C               Dm           Am      Am  (A-B-C)
A photograph lost to the sun


[Chorus]
C              Dm        Am     Am
As The sun dries the rain it leaves
C              Dm        Am     Am
That foul stench of dirt in the air
C              Dm        Am     Am
Before you reel in the line
             C           C
You see your face In the fish eye
Dm            Dm
That started to cry
C         C
The river forgets
Dm        Dm
But when will the fish?
C         C
On windows the water collects
Dm        Dm
And makes clear roads through the haze
C         C             Am      Am
Such clarity amazes me


[Outro]
C        Dm        Am     Am
Shine on me
C        Dm        Am     Am
Lighthouse please
C        Dm        Am     Am
Lighthouse please
C        Dm        Am     Am
Lighthouse please
C   N.C
Lighthouse please
N.C
Please please see me

The final C is played for 2 notes and then a hard stop.
