[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 th? middle of the deep end
Em        Dm
I'm still strand?d 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

[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]

[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
