Capo is on fret 1 or 2, dpending on your voice really.
And Standard tuning.

And from experience, I hate when people do not put the chords with the lyrics, so I
them.


(No intro really needed.)

Am            G                  C
Take what you need while there's time
Am               G          Am       Em
The city will be earth in a short while
Am         C        G              Am
If I'm not mistaken it's been in flames
Am      C      G             C . . . (Ring it out)
You and I will escape to the seaside

Am         G            C
There is a storm in the distance
Am                 G              Am     Em
The wind breathing warning of its imminence
Am         C          G            Am
There is a lighthouse five hundred yards down
C       G         C
You and I will be safe there

Bm7       F#7        E           Am
There is a girl who haunts that lighthouse
Bm7            F#7
She saved me, I was swimming
E        Am
So young I almost drowned
Bm7       F#7   E          Am
Under the water she sang a story
Bm7       F#7
Of losing her lover
E           Am
She calls a warning

Am            G        C
Love, you are foolish, you're tired
Am                 G           Am Em
Your sleeplessness makes you a liar
Am       C
The city is burning
G            Am
The ocean is turning
C        G             C
Our only chance is the lighthouse

Bm7       F#7
Her lover was a sailor
    E        Am
She went and she waited there
Bm7             F#7
The door locked from the outside
E     Am    Bm7            F#7
Lover never arrived so she sings there
E         Am    Bm7
Soft as a siren luring the ships off their course, how alarming

Bm7     F#7    E              Am
We went in, we climbed up and looked out
Bm7             F#7
The door locked from the outside
E            Am
Three ghosts in a lighthouse

Once again, I'm not 100% sure, but it sounds accurate.
