Intro:       
             

Verse 1:

                          
Faithful reasons still unknown
                                
Like Bleak House fog seems everywhere
                         
The truth has faded into stone
                                     First verse:   Second verse: 
And hope lies freezing in the midnight air


Bridge: (just play the chords)

              
Though dark our days may seem
       
This is a diff’rent dream
-5                                  
Their freedom light don’t shine at all


Chorus:

                  
So I will light a candle for you
                     
And keep it burning in the night
    
And pray that you’re all right
               
I will light a candle for you
                      
A little candle burning bright


Verse 2:

When schoolyard heroes disappear
The little girl she stands alone
Oh I believe you if you say
A prayer can help to get her home (yeah)
