 Gm          F               Eb                    F
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,

 Gm             F                 Eb - F
The light that all men seem to fear,

 Eb            F            Bb             Eb
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay,

     Cm  
And people kept away,

        Ab/C                                   Gm
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring,

                   F
When the morning comes,

    Eb             F                 Gm
And on and on that light returns again,

F  Eb                 F                      Gm - F - Eb - F - Gm - F - Eb
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain;

I took the old path down, climbing over rocks and stones, The place I knew when I was young, And in my fear I had to carry on, Where no-one else had gone, Looking in the heart of darkness from above, To the man inside, I took my chance and set off for the light, And started the journey of my life;

 F          Gm                           Eb
And in the darkest hour that light was calling me,

             F                     Gm
Through the doorway to another world,

                                  Eb
And there below me I saw all the days of my life,

            Cm                   D
Till the moment I stood on the shore,

Worlds away, this was my destiny, To be back here in another time, And all around me I saw the faces that I knew, Reaching out, "there is nothing to fear," Worlds away, Come with me;

 Gm           F              Eb
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,

 Gm             F               Eb - F
The light that all men seem to fear;

Eb        F   Eb         F  Eb        F      
Come with me, come with me, come with me...
