Halsey - The Lighthouse

[Verse 1]
Am
From a tender age, I was cursed with rage
C
Came swingin’ like a fist inside a battin’ cage
F
I went swimmin’ with the Devil at the bottom of a lake
G G#dim
And he left me there by my lonesome
Am
He was tall and mean with venom eyes so green
C
Wanted reconciliation, but my tongue was in my teeth
F
I couldn’t find the floor, so I was kickin’ with my feet
G G#dim
But they weren’t there, they were stolen

[Chorus]
Am
There is a lighthouse
G F
In thе middle of the deep end
Em Dm
I’m still strandеd on the shoreline there
G G#dim
And nobody hears me scream
Am
And I’ll lure you like a landslide
G F
And I’ll show you lovely things
Em
If you rescue me, but they’ll make-believe
G G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea

[Verse 2]
Am
I met a sailor on a ship with promise in his eyes
C
He kissed me on the mouth and dug his fingers in my thighs
F
But a sailor ain’t a savior ’cause they only tell you lies
G G#dim
So I left him there ’til the sunrise
Am
Well, the waves were tall and they were crashin’ down
C
He’s layin’ in the water, begging God to let him drown
F
So I showed him all my teeth and then I laughed out loud
*G*
‘Cause I never wanted savin’, I just wanted to be found

[Chorus]
Am
There is a lighthouse
G F
In thе middle of the deep end
Em Dm
I’m still strandеd on the shoreline there
G G#dim
And nobody hears me scream
Am
And I’ll lure you like a landslide
G F
And I’ll show you lovely things
Em
If you rescue me, but they’ll make-believe
G G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea

[Bridge]
Am
Well, that should teach a man to mess with me
C
He was never seen again and I’m still wanderin’ the beach
*F*
And I’m glad I met the Devil ’cause he showed me I was weak
G G#dim
And a little piece of him is in a little piece of me

[Chorus]
Am
There is a lighthouse
G F
In thе middle of the deep end
Em Dm
I’m still strandеd on the shoreline there
G G#dim
And nobody hears me scream
Am
And I’ll lure you like a landslide
G F
And I’ll show you lovely things
Em
If you rescue me, but they’ll make-believe
G G#dim
The lighthouse by the sea

G Em F
[Outro]
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
G Em F
And the waves come crashing down
