Intro: |C G | Am | 7x


Verse 1

Am       C        G           Am
One went out at a bus-stop in Edinburgh
         C         G       Am
One went out in an English park
         C        G                Am
One went out in a night club, when I was fifteen
C      G            Am
Little lights in my heart

|C G | Am |


Verse 2
         C          G          Am
One went out when I lied to my mother
         C              G              Am
Said the cigarettes she found were not mine
         C          G
One went out within me
      Am
Now I smoke like a chimney
             C            G        Am
It's getting dark in this heart of mine
             C            G        Am
It's getting dark in this heart of mine


Chorus

G
We're born with millions
   C             G              F
Of little lights shining in the dark
         Am          G
And they show us the way
               C              G                 F
One lights up, every time you feel love in your heart
    Am           G
One dies when it moves away

Instrumental |C G | Am | 4x


Verse 3
         C          G               Am
One went out in the back streets of Manchester
         C         G          Am
One went out in an airport in Spain
         C            G
One went out, have no doubt
            Am
When I grew up and moved out
       C               G           Am
Of the place where the boy used to play

Instrumental |C G | Am |
 

Verse 4
         C              G           Am
One went out when uncle Ben got his tumor
           C          G       Am
We used to fish and I fish no more
          C        G
Though we will not return
       Am
I know one still burns
     C                   G          Am
On a fishing boat of the New Jersey Shore
     C                   G          Am
On a fishing boat of the New Jersey Shore


Chorus

G
We're born with millions
   C             G              F
Of little lights shining in the dark
         Am          G
And they show us the way
               C              G                 F
One lights up, every time you feel love in your heart
    Am           G
One dies when it moves away

Chorus

G
We're born with millions
   C             G              F
Of little lights shining in our hearts
         Am            G
And they die along the way

                         C
Till we're old and we're cold
          G            F
And we're lying in the dark

               Am               G
'Cause they'll all burn out one day

C           G        Am
They'll all burn out one day
       C           G        Am
Oh oh, they'll all burn out one day
C           G        Am
They'll all burn out one day  yeah yeah


Outro: |C G | Am | 6x

How to practise this song

  1. 1

    Put your capo on fret 7

    Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.

  2. 2

    Practise the barre chord F

    F is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.

    Open
  3. 3

    Practise the change: F ↔ Am

    Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

    Open
  4. 4

    Great first song

    Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
