Lyrics and Music by Richard Stannard, Ellie Goulding and Ashley Howes

Intro: F#m | E | D | Bm7

        F#m
I had a way
    E              D          Bm7
Then losing it all on my own.
        F#m
I had a heart
    E                       D           Bm7
Then but the queen has been overthrown.
       F#m
And I’m not sleeping
E       D                Bm7
Now the dark is too hard to beat.
       F#m
And I’m not keeping
E       D                  Bm7
Now the strength I need to push me.

                F#m
   You show the lights
                E
   That stop me turn to stone,
       D                  Bm7
   You shine me when I’m alone,
            F#m
   And so I tell myself
        E
   That I’ll be strong
       D                     Bm7
   And dreaming when they’re gone.

                  F#m
   ‘Cause they’re calling,
            E
   Calling, calling me home,
   D                 Bm7
   Calling, calling, calling home.
                F#m
   You show the lights
                E
   That stop me turn to stone,
       D                  Bm7
   You shine me when I’m alone. Home.

Noises,
I play within my head,
Touch my own skin
And hope they’re still breathing.
And I think back
To when my brother and my sister slept
In an unlocked place,
The only time I feel safe.

   You show the lights
   That stop me turn to stone,
   You shine me when I’m alone,
   And so I tell myself
   That I’ll be strong
   And dreaming when they’re gone.

   ‘Cause they’re calling,
   Calling, calling me home,
   Calling, calling, calling home.
   You show the lights
   That stop me turn to stone,
   You shine me when I’m alone. Home.

   You show the lights

   You shine me when I’m alone,

   And dreaming when they’re gone.

   ‘Cause they’re calling,
   Calling, calling me home,
   Calling, calling, calling home.
   You show the lights
