[Chorus]
(picking)

             Em7                  Cadd9
I see your monsters, I see your pain.
              G                        Gsus2/F#
Tell me your problems, I'll chase them away.
              Em7                      Cadd9
I'll be your lighthouse. I'll make it okay.
                 G                           Gsus2/F#
When I see your monsters I'll stand there so brave, and chase them all away.


[Verse 1]

Em7
  A cup of coffee still steaming,
Cadd9
staring back at me and it's blacker than the night, eh.
G
  I'm awake but still sleeping,
       Gsus2/F#
I keep telling myself I'll be alright (I won't).
Em7
  And I know it can't get worse than today,
Cadd9
sitting here and she's trying to rehearse what to say.
G
  See, she's in the bathroom and hoping I'm not in earshot,
Gsus2/F#
while she's getting used to the sound of her teardrops.
Em7
Splash, it hits the dot and I know it's been
 Cadd9
awhile since you've seen me smile and laugh, like I used to.
G
I've been in denial since it happened,
Continues after the ad
                    Gsus2/F#                                     Em7
just take me to the past, cause I just can't imagine losing you, too.

I can't explain this so I keep it all inside,
Cadd9
     wear my pain but it's masked by my pride.
G
She came to hold me and she cried,
                      Gsus2/F#
told me this and she stared into my eyes and said..


[Chorus]

             Em7                  Cadd9
I see your monsters, I see your pain.
              G                        Gsus2/F#
Tell me your problems, I'll chase them away.
              Em7                      Cadd9
I'll be your lighthouse. I'll make it okay.
                 G                           Gsus2/F#
When I see your monsters I'll stand there so brave, and chase them all away.


[Verse 2]

Em7
I can't, you won't like what you see.
Cadd9
If you were in my head and had to hear my plea.
           G
It's like, I can't believe this is happening to me.
Gsus2/F#
And could someone please shut this fuck answering machine,
      Em7                                                Cadd9
so I can stop leaving these messages that you will never get.

And all these cries for help you'll never see, you'll never check.
G
  But I guess it's easy for you to leave me.
    Gsus2/F#
But believe me, see this isn't something that imma just forget.
Em7
  I would trade it all for one more minute,
          Cadd9
don't you see I really need you to talk to.
   G
Uh, I'm still sitting here wondering who did it,
          Gsus2/F#
while I'm staring out our front door knowing you'll never walk through.
Em7                        Cadd9
  Said you'd come right back, now you're gone like that.
G                                                  Gsus2/F#
  A blank stare as I stand so alone, I know you're never coming home. Damn.


[Chorus]

             Em7                  Cadd9
I see your monsters, I see your pain.
              G                        Gsus2/F#
Tell me your problems, I'll chase them away.
              Em7                      Cadd9
I'll be your lighthouse. I'll make it okay.
                 G                           Gsus2/F#                   Cadd9
When I see your monsters I'll stand there so brave, and chase them all away.


[Bridge]

                                      G
Uh, I got a heart made of fools gold, got me feeling so cold.
      Gsus2/F#      C
They keep chipping away. All the promises I told,
G                  Gsus2/F#                  Cadd9
felt like I was on those, they keep slipping away.
                             Em7                           Gsus2/F#
I want nobody else, but it's hard to get to know me when I don't know myself.
       Am7
And it helps cause I felt i was down, I was out, then you looked at me now and said...


[Chorus]
(2x)

             Em7                  Cadd9
I see your monsters, I see your pain.
              G                        Gsus2/F#
Tell me your problems, I'll chase them away.
              Em7                      Cadd9
I'll be your lighthouse. I'll make it okay.
                 G                           Gsus2/F#
When I see your monsters I'll stand there so brave, and chase them all away.
