L[Gm]ast night I [F]saw it there, sh[Eb]ining in the dark agai[F]n,
T[Gm]he light that a[F]ll men seem to fea[Eb]r,[-][F]
T[Eb]hey say that s[F]ailors were d[Bb]rowning in the [Eb]bay,
And p[Cm]eople kept away,
Waiting [Ab/C]for the riches that a wreck would bring[Gm],
When the morning co[F]mes,
And [Eb]on and on that [F]light returns agai[Gm]n,
F Eb F Gm - F - Eb - F - Gm - F - Eb
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;
A[F]nd in the d[Gm]arkest hour that light was ca[Eb]lling me,
Through the d[F]oorway to another worl[Gm]d,
And there below me I saw all the d[Eb]ays of my life,
Till the mom[Cm]ent I stood on the sh[D]ore,
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;
L[Gm]ast night I s[F]aw it there, sh[Eb]ining in the dark again,
T[Gm]he light that a[F]ll men seem to f[Eb]ear[-];[F]
[Eb]Come with [F]me, [Eb]come with m[F]e, [Eb]come with [F]me...
