G5          F5               Eb5                    F5
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,
 G5             F5                 Eb5 - F5
The light that all men seem to fear,
 Eb5            F5            Bb5             Eb5
They say that sailors were drowning in the bay,
     C5  
And people kept away,
        Ab5                                   G5
Waiting for the riches that a wreck would bring,
                   F5
When the morning comes,
    Eb5             F5                 G5
And on and on that light returns again,
F5  Eb5                 F5                      G5 - F5 - Eb5 - F5 - G5 - F5 - Eb5
To haunt the ones who would not hear the pain;

I took the old path down, climbing over rocks and stones,
The place I knew when I was young,
And in my fear I had to carry on,
Where no-one else had gone,
Looking in the heart of darkness from above,
To the man inside,
I took my chance and set off for the light,
And started the journey of my life;

 F5          G5                           Eb5
And in the darkest hour that light was calling me,
             F5                     G5
Through the doorway to another world,
                                  Eb5
And there below me I saw all the days of my life,
            C5                   D5
Till the moment I stood on the shore,

Worlds away, this was my destiny,
To be back here in another time,
And all around me I saw the faces that I knew,
Reaching out, "there is nothing to fear,"
Worlds away,
Come with me;

 G5           F5              Eb5
Last night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,
 G5             F5               Eb5 - F5
The light that all men seem to fear;
Eb5        F5   Eb5         F5  Eb5        F5      
Come with me, come with me, come with me...
