[C] And [Am]
[C] I've been getting urges [Am] late at night [C] To walk and walk for days and throughout [Am] lives
[C] Through people's houses picking food [Am] from plates
[C] Through people's gardens picking locks [Am] on gates
[F] So we [Am] are moving to [G] a lighthouse, you [F] and I
While seas [Am] drown sailors we'll [G] be locked up safe [Dm] and dry
[F] And though [Am] our doors may [G] knock and rattle in the [Dm]
wind
[C]
I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in
And
[B] I've been leaving gifts out in [F] the woods
That [C] someone might stumble upon [F] and wonder at their origins
[C] And I've been feeling [D] like a fox [F] with sad old eyes
[C] Whose skull has all moved on to leave [F] the dark and empty den behind
So we are [Am] moving [G] to a lighthouse, you [F] and I
While seas drown [Am]
sailors we'll [G] be locked up safe [Dm] and dry
[F] And though our [Am] doors may [G] knock and rattle in the [Dm]
wind
[C]
I'll just hold you tight and we'll not let those fuckers in
Oh [Am] no, these little wars of [G]
attrition and these [C] invocations
[Dm]
[Am] That see me holding my camera [A] out at arm's length to [C] self-document these new [D]
locations
When I should [F] be leaning against you [Am] deciding on things to get [G] done
And you should [F] be leaning on [Am] fountains and filling my space [G] up and breathing the air from [Dm] my lungs
Oh, [F]
na [C]
na na [D] na na
[C] [F] So we are [Am] moving to [G] a lighthouse, you [F] and I
While seas drown [Am] sailors we'll be [G] locked up safe [Dm] and dry
[F] And we are [Am] moving to [G] a lighthouse, you [F] and I
Our beams [Am] will burn the clouds [G] to beacons in the [Dm] sky
