[Bb]
[Ab] [Ebm]
I [Bbm] had a way
[Ab] then, losing [Ebm] it on my own [Bbm] then,
[Fm] but the queen has [Ebm] been overthrown.
[Bbm] And I'm not sleeping [Ab] now, [Gb] the dark is too [Ebm] hard to beat.
[Bbm] And I'm not keeping [Ab] now, [Gb] the strength I need [Ebm] to push me.
You [Bbm] show the lights then stop me, [Db] turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm] And so I tell myself that [Ab] I'll be strong [Db] and dream it when [Ebm] they're gone.
[Bbm] Cause they're calling, calling, [Ab] calling me [Db] home.
Calling, calling, [Ebm] calling [Bbm] home.
You show the lights then stop me, [Db] turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm]
[Fm] Voices I play [Gb] with in my [Ebm] head, touch my [Bbm] own skin [Fm] and hope that [Gb] I'm still breathing.
[Ebm] And [Bbm] I think back to [Ab] when my [Gb] brother and [Ebm] my sister slept [Bbm] in an unlocked [Ab] place.
[Gb] The only time [Ebm] I feel safe.
You [Bbm] show the lights then stop [Db] me, turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm] And so I tell myself that [Db] I'll be strong and dream it when [Ebm] they're gone.
[Bbm] Cause they're calling, calling, [Ab] calling me [Db] home.
Calling, calling, [Ebm] calling [Bbm] home.
You show the lights then stop me, [Db] turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm]
[Dbm] [Bbm]
[Db] [Bbm] Home,
[Db] home, [Bbm] home.
[Ebm] You show [Bbm] the lights then stop [Db] me, turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm] And so I tell myself [Db] that I'll be strong and dream it when [Ebm] they're gone.
[Bbm] Cause they're calling, calling, [Ab] calling me [Db] home.
Calling, calling, [Ebm] calling [Bbm] home.
You show the lights then stop [Db] me, turn to stone.
You shine it when [Ebm] I'm alone.
[Bbm] Home,
[Ab] home, [Db] home.
[Ebm] [Bbm] Home,
[Ab] home, home.
