Rattlin through this house again
[C]           [F]      [C]     [C/B]
I thought you were the moon
[Am]            [G]     [C]
Lightin up these empty rooms

I thought you were the sun
[F]                         [C]
Shining down on everyone but me

Reaching out as I flew by

I heard you on the sea
[F]                         [C]
Always calling out to me
