The Lighthouse Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Gsus4][C][F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
There is [C]a
lighthouse on the hillside
And [F]it overlooks [C]life's sea
[F]And when [C]I'm tossed,
you know it sends down a big ol' light
[D]Well, it's a light that I might [G]see
[F]And the [C]light that shines in darkness now
It's gonna [F]safely lead me [D]home
[C]But if it [F]wasn't for that old [C]lighthouse,
you know this old [G]ship,
it would sail no [F]more.[C][Asus4]
[A]And now every[D]body that
[A]lives [D]around us,
all around [C]us, [G]they say,
tear that old lighthouse [D]down.[G]
[D]We all know the big ships
don't sail by this way anymore.
[E]Oh, there ain't no use
in that old thing [A]standing round.
Oh, but in my [D]mind,
it goes back to that stormy night
[G]when just in
[E]Oh [D]yes, the best thing
[G]about that [D]old lighthouse,
it still [A]stands way up there on the [D]hill.
[Bb]I thank God [Eb]for t[Bb]he lighth[Eb]ouse,
I [Ab]owe my life to H[Eb]im,
[Bbsus4]for Jesus is t[Eb]he lig[Bb]hthouse a[Eb]nd from[F]
From the rocks of [Bb]sin
For He has [Eb]shown [Bb]His light a[Eb]round me
That [Ab]I could clearly see[Eb]
[Bbsus4]If it wasn't f[Eb]or the[Bb] lighthou[Eb]se
[Ab]Then [Bb]where would

[Outro 1]
this ship be?
