 Gm (355333@1)           F (133211@1)               Eb- (x43121@3)FThe (133211@1)light that all men seem to fear,

     Cm (x3101x@1)
And people kept away,
        Ab/C                                   GmWaiting (355333@1)for the riches that a wreck would bring,
                   FWhen (133211@1)the morning comes,
    Eb (x43121@3)           F (133211@1)               GmAnd (355333@1)on and on that light returns again,

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;

F (133211@1)        Gm (355333@1)                         EbAnd (x43121@3)in the darkest hour that light was calling me,
             F (133211@1)                   GmThrough (355333@1)the doorway to another world,
                                  EbAnd (x43121@3)there below me I saw all the days of my life,
            Cm (x3101x@1)                 DTill (xx0232@1)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;

Gm (355333@1)         F (133211@1)            EbLast (x43121@3)night I saw it there, shining in the dark again,
 Gm (355333@1)           F (133211@1)             Eb- (x43121@3)FThe (133211@1)light that all men seem to fear;

Come with me, come with me, come with me...
