[Verse 1]
                            A
I gotta light a candle for you
Am                     C             Fm
So you can see yourself in the dark
                         A
I gotta get a handle on you (so you can see yourself)
Am               C              Fm
And the hand will leave a mark
                           A
I gotta get directions off you (can you see yourself)
Am                       C
The mirror flare could be anywhere
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G              E
The night is a liar
G             E
Overthrow the tyrant
G             E
Overthrow the tyrant
 
[Chorus]
F#m D
E                             F#m D
And in the fading light I saw
E
When you asked yourself
F#m          D
Why has this happened to me
E
Once or twice (once or twice)
Fm                                 A Am C
Something nice might have come of it

[Verse 2]
                           A
I gotta fight a battle for you
Am                  C        Fm
Dial it back another century
                             A
Another night I'd settle for you (you can see yourself)
Am                C
Every morning and everywhere
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G          E
Today is a liar
G           E
Undergo the silence
G           E
Undergo the silence
 
F#m D
 
[Chorus]
E                             F#m D
And in the fading light I saw
E
When you asked yourself
F#m          D
Why has this happened to me
E             F#m D
Once or twice
E                           F#m D
In the fading night I heard
E
When they shoot themselves
F#m          D
How did this happen to me
E
Once or twice (once or twice)
Fm                                  A Am C x2
Something nice might have come of it
Fm                                  A Am C Fm
Something nice might have come of it
 
[Outro]
                           A Am C
I gotta light a candle for you
