[Verse 1]
(Am)    Em    D                C      Am
I had a way then losing it all on my own

        Em        D                       C      Am
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown

    Em               D       C                Am
And I'm not sleeping now the dark is too hard to beat

    Em              D          C               Am
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me
[Chorus]
             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone

         Em               D
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong

    C                     Am
And dreaming when they're gone

               Em                D
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

C                 Am
Calling, calling, calling home

             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone
[Verse 2]
Em  D              C       Am
Noises, I play within my head

         Em      D                    C         Am
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing

    Em              D       C              Am
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept

Em             D         C           Am
In an unlocked place the only time I feel safe
[Chorus]
             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone

         Em               D
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong

    C                     Am
And dreaming when they're gone

               Em                D
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

C                 Am
Calling, calling, calling home

             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone

Em
Home
[Interlude] Em D C Am (repeat) [Chorus]
             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone

         Em               D
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong

    C                     Am
And dreaming when they're gone

               Em                D
'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home

C                 Am
Calling, calling, calling home

             Em                  D
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone

    C                  Am
You shine it when I'm alone
