Capo 1
There’s a [C]crowd playing house and a host who won’t stop chewing my [Am]ear
Can I [C]open a window? There’s hardly any air in [Am]here
Somebody’s [F]match lit cigarette smoke has made its way to your [C]hair now
and I’ve just [F]said some shit that’ll linger in my head for a [C]year
I keep looking at [C]you Looking like [G]that We’re at a [F]party we don’t wanna be at
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
I keep looking at [C]you And you’re looking right [G]back I’m stuck in the [F]corner like I’m under the attack
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
Would a [C]tactical Irish goodbye be such an awful i[Am]dea?
I’m con[C]soling a stranger who’s eyes are filling up with [Am]tears
Can’t even [F]sing along cause this bass has broken into my c[C]hest now
But just a [F]half of your smile is a paragraph of what I wanna [C]hear
I keep looking at [C]you Looking like [G]that We’re at a [F]party we don’t wanna be at
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
I keep looking at [C]you And you’re looking right [G]back I’m stuck in the [F]corner like I’m under the attack
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
I’ll [C]shuffle down the hallway till I’m catching your gaze
Cause I [F]know that you’re my person and my gap in the rain
It’s [Am]selfish but it’s true I [G]can’t afford to lose my [F]lighthouse
I keep looking at [C]you Looking like [G]that We’re at a [F]party we don’t wanna be at
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
I keep looking at [C]you And you’re looking right [G]back I’m stuck in the [F]corner like I’m under the attack
You’re throwing me a [Am]lifeline, honey Keep your [G]lighthouse shining a[F]gain
