'Lights' by Ellie Goulding - Guitar Tutorial

            [Capo on 4th fret]
 
(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 


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 
 
       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          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
You shine It when I'm alone
