Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x4
Take  what you need  while there's time
The  city will be earth  in a short  while
If  I'm not mistaken it's  been in flames
You  and I will  escape to the seaside
There  is a storm  in the distance
The  wind breathing  warning of its imminence
There  is a lighthouse  five  hundred yards  down
You  and I will  be safe  there
There  is a girl  who haunts  that lighthouse
 She saved  me, I was swimming
 So young I almost drowned
Under  the water  she sang a story
 Of  losing her lover
 She calls a warning
 x4
Love,  you are foolish,  you're tired
 Your  sleeplessness makes  you a liar
 The  city is burning,  the ocean  is turning
Our  only chance  is the lighthouse
Her  lover was  a sailor
 She went and she waited there
 The door  locked from the  outside
 Lover never arrived  so she sings  there
 Soft as a siren luring  the ships  off their  course, how alarming
We  went in, we  climbed up and looked  out
The  door locked  from the outside
Three  ghosts in a lighthouse
