Lighthouse (live) -- Antje Duvekot
Tabbed by ear by Travis Hussey (mr_flycstr@yahoo.com)
Capo I
You, you're not the first to A
Ask, and probably not the D
Last, and I don't expect you E
To understand A-E
Why I stayed upon that A
Rock, after the birds had D
Gone and all of the waves turned E
To sand A-E
But I am A lighthouse in A F#m-E
Desert and I stand alone D-E
I dream of an ocean that was F#m-E
Here a long time ago and I D-E
Remember his cool waters and I still B7-E
Glow A
Well these days, the sunlight has bleached my A
Paint and the moonlight has made it D
Plain that nobody needs me to E
Call them home A-E
But I swear there was a time when A
I would shine for him through the D
Night, well he was the only E
Ocean -- that I have known A-E
And I am A lighthouse in A F#m-E
Desert and I stand alone D-E
I dream of an ocean that was F#m-E
Here a long time ago and I D-E
Remember his cool waters and I still B7-E
Glow A
Now my lantern bears a crack and I D*
Know he will not be back but F#m*
I will leave the light on D*
Forever Fmaj7-6 (xx3230)

'Cause I am A lighthouse in A F#m-E
Desert and I stand alone D-E
I dream of an ocean that was F#m-E
Here a long time ago and I D-E
Remember his cool water, I B7-E
Remember his cool water, I B7-E
Remember his cool water, and I still B7-E
Glow A*
