Lighthouse James Taylor 1975 Off the coast of Africa, [D A4 A] bound for South America [Bm F#m7] F world away from here [F G4 F] Is a ship that sails the sea [D A4 A] Is a man who's just like me [Bm F#m7] And I wish that I was there [G A G/D D A/D] I'm a lonely lighthouse-not a ship out in the night [D A/D C/D G] I'm watching the sea [A Bm] She's come half-way round the world to see the light [D A/D C/D G] and to stay away from me [A7sus4 A7 G/D D A/D] There is F shipwreck lying at my feet [Am F F, C G/C F] Some weary refugee from the rolling deep [Bm A G/D D A/D] Ah, would you lose it all and fall for me? [Bm F#7sus4 F#7 Bm7 E7]

Couldn't we shine? ^G/D I'm rolling all my golden moments into one [D A/D C/D] Like to shine like the sun for one more summer day ^{G/D D A/D C/D} Shine like a lighthouse for one last summer night ^{G/D D A/D C/D} Flashing on, flashing on, fading away ^{G/D D A/D C/D} F/C

Well if you feel lost and lonely and don't know where to go [D A/D C/D G] and you hear this song on the radio [A Bm] Or even if you're feeling healthy and strong [D A/D C/D G] you might like to sing along [A7sus4 A7 G/D D A/D] But just because I might be standing here [Bm A G, D A/D G] That don't mean I won't be wrong this time [Bm A G/D D A/D] You could follow me and lose your mind [Bm F#7sus4 F#7 Bm7 E7] (repeat Chorus) Off the coast of Africa, [D A4 A] bound for South America [Bm F#m7] F world away from here [F G4 F] Is a ship that sails the sea [D A4 A] Is a man who's just like me [Bm F#m7] And I wish that I was there [G A ||: G/D D A/D C/D :||]
