My first tab, so there's probably a few mistakes, but this is how I play it!
Em
Sing now muse I won't be scared

                                           G
She's wearing flowers not snakes up in her hair tonight

Em
And love we've been around before

                                       G
We washed up on the old shore but it's new tonight

Em
'It's only light' she said

            C           G
'But we are liars to be free'

Am  C/B C         C/B                Em
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see

Em
The hour falls we fall to dance
Now sirens and the marching bands sing
G
'It's nothing but chance tonight'

Em
The billion ones and many few

                                  G
And everyone I never knew they're here tonight

Em
'It's only light' we said

           C           G
But we are liars to be free

Am  C/B C         C/B                G    Em
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see

G
What if I'm lonely?

            Em
What if the skies should fall and disappear?

              G
For one night only

          Em
Open your eyes and run into the clear

        Am        C/B  C
So if I may, what if I say

       D                G 
'It's good to have you here!'

Em
She said 'If you lead I'll come along

                     C                    G
And if you need me there I'll sing your song tonight

Em
And all that glows and all that shines

                  C                     G
And all we leave behind will keep them warm tonight'

Em
'It's only light' I said

            C          G
But we are liars to be free

Am  C/B C                           G
Ooh ooh ooh we'll steal the light to see

             G
What if I'm lonely?

            Em
What if the skies should fall and disappear?

              G
For one night only

           Em
Open your eyes and run into the clear

           G
I love you only

            Em
Until the skies fall down and disappear

        Am        C/B  C
So if I may, what if I say

       D                G 
'It's good to have you here!'

  Tab for the outro: "Oh...Oh...Oh..."
  Em                                 G
