[Intro]
F# B (8x)
[Verse 1]
F# B F# B
There's a lighthouse on the water, throwing light back at the shore
F# B F# B
I heard you died trying to swim towards it, now you're living on the river's floor
F# B F# B
I heard the mighty Mississippi took you out with just one punch
F# B F# B
I heard you had the voice of a sweetheart, but the sweetheart was out getting drunk
F# B (4x)
[Verse 2]
F# B F# B
And hey man, have you heard Buckley singing Hallelujah?
F# B F# B
He did what Leonard never could to it, gave it wings then away it was
F# B F# B
Number two in England, and they say you're your daddy's son
F# B F# B
But Jeff, if you're anything like me, you only care about America
F# B
Whеre you're always in someonе's wake
F# B
Or you're singing while you're sinking in sand
F# B
And the river's still from far away
F# B
But if you touch her, she will pull you in
F# B
'Cause she's violent and she's stubborn
F# B F# B
And she's ugly but I love her, goddamn
F# B
Goddamn
[Chorus]
F# B F# B
When I was young, love drunk, and dreaming
F# B F# B
I'd dream of singing in some kingdom
F# B F# B
And just like birds, my words would fly
F# B F# B
And as they'd take flight then so would I
[Verse 3]
F# B F# B
I feel like Valens on a Cessna, flying through the fog
F# B
There's a lighthouse on the water
F# B
That's not a lighthouse, that's just Arkansas
F# B F# B
Yeah, the sky can lift the river, and spread it out over the farm
F# B F# B
Life's just one long day, babe, but I've been awake all day long
F# B F# B
And I, one day too, plan to be king
F# B F# B
Put some gloves on me, oh, and put me in the ring
F# B F# B
And oh, just to be a fighter, big black boots strapped to my feet
F# B F# B
To be so young but so tired, and still prettier than anything
[Interlude]
F# B (4x)
[Verse 4]
F# B F# B
Caterpillar in the winter, 'til wings come in the spring
F# B F# B
'Til then, settle down in some shotgun shack where the wallpaper unlocks your dreams
F# B F# B
And hey man, have you heard him sing with a voice like a symphony weeps?
F# B
I've seen him staring back at the camera
F# B
And I swear to God he looked at me
F# B F# B
And if you wanna settle down, then you came to the right town
F# B F# B
To close your big brown eyes, and wear a coat of butterflies
F# B F# B
But if you wanna live forever, jump in deep with the mysteries sweet
F# B F# B F# B
Wade into the water, close your eyes boy, and sing
F# B
Want a whole lot of love
F# B
Want a whole lot of love
F# B
Want a whole lot of love
F# B
Want a whole lot of love
[Chorus]
F# B F# B
When I was young, love drunk, and dreaming
F# B F# B
I'd dream of singing in some kingdom
F# B F# B
And just like birds, my words would fly
F# B F# B
And as they'd take flight then so would I
