(Verso 1) 

Am       G 
Take one step 
    F 
And make it count 
Am        G                  F 
Hold your breath and let it out 
      Am         G    F 
Cause love don't set, say it loud 
          Am        G 
There's a fire in me 
             F 
That's still burning 


(Refrão) 

(Am G F) 

I'm sending out a searchlight 
Send it out until I find you 
Can you bring me back to life 
                              (C C/B Am7 G) 
With my heart in smithereens? 
I wanna feel what is like 
To be surrounded by you 
So I'm sending out a searchlight 
To bring you back to me 

(C C/B Am7 G) 

(Verso 2) 

(Am G F) 

Lost again 
In this night 
The sun just leads me into shadows 
In my bones, in my blood 
You're my disease 
Like a remedy 



(Refrão) 


I'm sending out a searchlight 
Send it out until I find you 
Can you bring me back to life 
                              (C C/B Am7 G) 
With my heart in smithereens? 
I wanna feel what is like 
To be surrounded by you 
So I'm sending out a searchlight 
To bring you back to me 


(C C/B Am7 G) 

(Ponte) 

G               (C C/B Am7 G) 
Like wild river 
G               (C C/B Am7 G) 
In a hurricane 
G                   (C C/B Am7 G) 
Like a fallen empire 
G 
I will rise again 
Am      G 
Take on step 
    F 
And make it count 



(Refrão) 


I'm sending out a searchlight 
Send it out until I find you 
Can you bring me back to life 
                              (C C/B Am7 G) 
With my heart in smithereens? 
I wanna feel what is like 
To be surrounded by you 
So I'm sending out a searchlight 
To bring you back to me 


(C C/B Am7 G) Am
