Lighthouse
Sam Riggs and The Night People
Outrun The Sun
Capo 3
(Verse 1)
G
You might say that I'm an old has been
D
You might say I'm just a never was
Em7
I'm a little bit of both now and then
Cadd9
Never really stood to fight for much
G
But something happened when your eyes met mine
D
I became a different man
Em7
Heard a whisper screaming deep inside
Cadd9
You better ask that girl to dance
Em7
So when the lights went down
D
The band cranked up
Cadd9
We stepped out on that floor
Em7
Started out with one slow dance
D Cadd9
I got something worth fighting for
(Chorus)
G
Never been the kind to turn around
D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
Em7 D Cadd9
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
Em7 D Cadd9
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
Em7
If I had you
(Verse 2)
G
I drink my liquor from the bottom shelf
D
Smoke it if it burns
Em7
Know I'm gunna have the devil to pay
Cadd9
When it comes my turn
G
But I wouldn't ever do you wrong
D
I got everything to prove
Em7
Never wanted someone so strong
Cadd9
Until I saw you
Em7
So when the lights come on
D
The band tears down
Cadd9
I'll be the one to take you home
Em7
And when the night winds blow
D Cadd9
You're never gunna be alone.
(Chorus)
G
Never been the kind to turn around
D
Shots fired I won't hit the ground
Em7 D Cadd9
When your back's against the wall you know exactly where I'll be
G
I'll be standing tall against the waves
D
Just like a lighthouse in a hurricane
Em7 D Cadd9
I'd have everything to lose and nothing left to gain
Em7
If I had you
(Chorus)
