  INTRO D  C  D 
D                           D7                                       
There's a lighthouse on the hillside   
       G   Gm            D    A 
And it overlooks life's sea.  
   D                                   Bm            
And When my soul is tossed you know it sends out a light   
  E           Em       A7  
A light that I might see.  
D                        D7               G                 Gm       
And the light that shines in darkness now will safely lead me home,  
     D                                  Bm              
And I know, I know If it wasn't for the lighthouse,   
          Em          A       D    C    D 
I know my ship would sail no more.  
  
  
D                        D7                                           
Now everybody that lives around us, all around us   
                  G       Gm            D 
Well they all say tear the lighthouse down, and they say  
  D                                                  Bm                    
We all know the big ships they don't sail by this way anymore,   
                                E                      Em  
There just ain't no use in that poor old thing standing round   
        D                                  D7                     
But then my mind goes way on back to that stormy night, when I  
     G                      Gm         
when just in time thank God I saw the light  
                         D                    Bm 
Don't you know it was the light from that old lighthouse,   
     Em         A                D  
that stands up there yes it does on the hill.  
  
  
A7          D  A        D   D7     G         Gm       D  A7 
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him.  
 D    A      D    Bm        E                 Em   A 
Jesus is The Lighthouse and from the rocks of sin,  
      D           A         D  D7           G            Gm  
He has shown the light around me, so that I might clearly see.  
      D     A        D  Bm         Em           A7     G   D  C  D 
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse, Where would this ship be?  
  
  
A7          D  A        D   D7     G         Gm       D  A7 
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him.  
 D    A      D    Bm        E                 Em   A 
Jesus is The Lighthouse and from the rocks of sin,  
      D           A         D  D7           G            Gm  
He has shown the light around me, so that I might clearly see.  
      D     A        D  Bm         Em           A7     G   D  C  D 
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse, Where would this ship be?
