[Intro]
C  G  Am
[Strophe]
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
[Strophe]
         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
[Refrain]
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
[Strophe]
         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
[Strophe]
         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
[Refrain]
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
[Outro]
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
