[INTRO]
N.C.
I was born and
Bm F#m Raised by the sea; shy yet proud D A G learned to stay away from the crowd A D F#m In my home, my lighthouse Bm F#m 101 steps, round and down D A G New Years Eve, one night on the town A D F#m Bm Can change one life into eternity

[VERSE]
Bm D All I could see, her eyes Bm D We got caught in the moment all of the night Em G Taken beyond all lines Em G A In silence, leaving them all behind Bm D She had found the sails for the following night Bm D The town, for her, was getting way too small Em G She promised to be mine Em Asus4 A Forever, for that one night G Moments, passion, small defeats Bm Concealed emotions found in me G Em D A "You gave life to a brand new me" Bm D Crossing the wintry fields Bm D The first hour of morning light Em G Warmed by the flame inside Em G A The lasting memory of the ending night Bm D I never had a chance to stop what hit me Bm D What broke my bones and mauled me Em G After hours of deep unwilling sleep Em G A In a cold shelter, fell back in the dark A And the hours of the day passed
[CHORUS]
Am Em A nightmare awakes me, blinking light C G F There's no guide, blind ships in the night G C Em G Oh, blood red moon, eat away the night Bm Darkness covers my lonely soul Em No one to feed the dying light

[VERSE]
Em G Good morn', oh dreadful day Em G Am I prayed the moon had lit the sea instead of me C For the sails of night Am C D Please tell me everything is alright Em G My voice in the room broke the silence Em G Everybody killed me with their eyes Am C What I was to hear made the people cry Am C D Impossible for me to keep the tears inside
[CHORUS]
Am Em "All on the board the White Pearl have died! C G F Coastal reef has tolled their lives G C Em Am And you are the light of the night!"
[VERSE]
G Em One thing I remember G Before I fell on the ground Am C Am Although I never saw the face C D A name was inked in his arm Em G Love can be like poetry of demons, Em G Or maybe God loves complex irony? Am C Am The family name stated I had seen before C D Was written on her front door Am "Silence in the courthouse!"
D Em C G D B7
Am D Em A presence in the room we both could feel C G D B7 Am The father of her unborn child and me
[CHORUS]
Am Em All on the board the White Pearl have died C G F Coastal reef has tolled their lives G C Em While I was the guide light Am Em Back in my tower, run, run, run C G F Light is out, I hope to see G C Em Bm Black oceans beneath rise and swallow me

Bm C One step will take me back inside F# Another sees my end! Bm No one can love a man who guarded the light G C (Gaurded the light) one fateful night F# Flaming eyes I must confront Bm F# Bm Before I am stated free C Defining innocence is hell F# After all that has passed Bm Building new walls inside G C My eternal night F# Although they took my heart Bm F# Bm And dried me up, sometimes I still bleed F# Bm Em F# Show me the way, show me the way Bm The light will show me A D F# A way on the grisly reefs Bm G Em Too many dead ends I see Bm No soul can save me, A D The respect I lost, the measure of a man

Bm F#m 10,000 steps down, round and round D A G A D F#m One night on the town and I'm hell bound
