Chords

[Verse 1]
        Am 
From a tender age, I was cursed with rage

       C
Came swingin' like a fist inside a battin' cage

          F
I went swimmin' with the Devil at the bottom of a lake

        G                G#dim
And he left me there by my lonesome

       Am
He was tall and mean with venom eyes so green

       C
Wanted reconciliation, but my tongue was in my teeth

  F
I couldn't find the floor, so I was kickin' with my feet

     G                            G#dim
But they weren't there, they were stolen
[Chorus]
Am 
There is a lighthouse

G       F
In thе middle of the deep end

Em        Dm
I'm still strandеd on the shoreline there

      G             G#dim
And nobody hears me scream

         Am 
And I'll lure you like a landslide

G        F 
And I'll show you lovely things

        Em 
If you rescue me, but they'll make-believe

    G                 G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea
[Verse 2]
         Am 
I met a sailor on a ship with promise in his eyes

    C
He kissed me on the mouth and dug his fingers in my thighs

      F
But a sailor ain't a savior 'cause they only tell you lies

     G                        G#dim
So I left him there 'til the sunrise

          Am 
Well, the waves were tall and they were crashin' down

     C
He's layin' in the water, begging God to let him drown

      F
So I showed him all my teeth and then I laughed out loud
*G* 'Cause I never wanted savin', I just wanted to be found [Chorus]
Am 
There is a lighthouse

G       F
In thе middle of the deep end

Em        Dm
I'm still strandеd on the shoreline there

      G             G#dim
And nobody hears me scream

         Am 
And I'll lure you like a landslide

G        F 
And I'll show you lovely things

        Em 
If you rescue me, but they'll make-believe

    G                 G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea
[Bridge]
       Am
Well, that should teach a man to mess with me

       C
He was never seen again and I'm still wanderin' the beach
*F* And I'm glad I met the Devil 'cause he showed me I was weak
      G                           G#dim
And a little piece of him is in a little piece of me
[Chorus]
Am 
There is a lighthouse

G       F
In thе middle of the deep end

Em        Dm
I'm still strandеd on the shoreline there

      G             G#dim
And nobody hears me scream

         Am 
And I'll lure you like a landslide

G        F 
And I'll show you lovely things

        Em 
If you rescue me, but they'll make-believe

    G                 G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea

G  Em F

[Outro]

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down

G                  Em           F
And the waves come crashing down
