[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][G][Em][G][D][G]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D][G]
[D][G]
[D]There's a lighthouse

[Verse 1]
on the [G]wa ter
Throwing [D]light back at the [G]shore
I heard you [D]died trying [G]to swim
towards it
Now you're [D]living on the [G]river's floor
I heard the [D]mighty [G]Mississippi [Em]took [G]you
[D]out with just [G]one punch
I heard you [D]had the [G]voice
of a sweetheart
But the sweet[D]heart was out [G]getting
[Em]drunk[G]
[D][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D][G]
And [D]hey man, have you heard
[G]Buckley singing [D]Hallelujah?
[G]He did[D] what Leonard never cou[Em]ld to it,
gave it [D]wings then away it [G]was
[D]Number two in [G]England,
and they say [D]you're your daddy's [G]son
[D]But Jeff, if you're anything [G]like me,
you only [D]care [G]about America
[D]Where you're always in
someone's [G]wake
Or you're [D]singing while you're
sinking in [G]sand
In the [D]river still from far [G]away
But if you touch her,
she will [D]pull you [G]in
'Cause she's [D]violent
and she's [G]stubborn
And she's [D]ugly but I [G]love her, goddamn
[D]God[G]damn
[D][G]

[Verse 3]
[D]When I was[G] young, love dru[Asus4]nk,
[D]and dreaming[G][D]
I'd dream [G]of singing in [D]some kingdom[G]
[D]And just like birds,[G]
my words would [D]fly[G][D]
As they'd take [G]flight then so would [D]I[G]

[Verse 4]
I feel like [D]Valens on a [G]Cessna,
[D]flying through the [G]fo g
There's a [D]lighthouse
on the [G]wa ter
It's not a [D]lighthouse,
that's just [G]Arkansas
Yeah, the [D]sky can lift the [G]river and
[D]spread it out over [G]the farm
[D]Life's just one long day, [G]babe,
but I've [D]been awake all [G]day long
And [D]I, one day [G]too, [D]plan [G]to be king
[D]Put some gloves [G]on me,
oh, and [D]put me in the [G]ring
And [D]oh, just to be [G]a fighter,
big black [D]boots strapped to my [G]feet
To [D]be so young but [G]so tired [Asus4]and still prettier [D]than
[G]anything
[D][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[D][G]
Caterpil[D]lar in the [G]winter,
'til [D]wings come in the [G]spring
'Til then, [D]settle down in some
[G]shotgun shack
Where the [D]wallpaper unlocks [G]your dreams
And [D]hey man, have you heard him [G]sing
With a [D]voice like a symphony [G]weeps?
Seen him [D]staring back at the camer[G]a
And I [D]swear to God he looked at [G]me

[Verse 6]
[D]And if you wanna settle d[G]own,
then you [D]came to the right [G]town
To [D]close your big brown [G]eyes
and wear a [D]coat of butterflies
[G]But if [D]you wanna live forever,[G]
jump in [D]deep with the mysteries [G]sweet
[D]Wade into the [G]wa ter,
close [D]your eyes boy, [G]and sing[Em][D]
[G]Want a whole lot of love

[Verse 7]
[D]
[G]Want a whole lot of [D]love
[G]Want a whole lot of [D]love
[G]Want a whole lot of love
[D][G]

[Verse 8]
[D]
When I [G]was young, love [Em]drunk,
and dream[D]ing[G][D]
I'd dream [G]of singing [Em]in
some king[D]dom[G]
[D]And just lik[G]e birds my wor[Em]ds
would [D]fly[G][D]
As they'd take [G]flight then
[Em]so w[D]ould I
