#1.
C            Dm            F   G   C
I'll be your candle on the wat-er, my love 
    Am       F      Bb
for you will always burn.
G E           Am       C         F
I know you're lost and drifting, but the 
           C        F                  C
clouds are lifting..don't give up, you have 
             Dm   G
somewhere to turn.


#2.
C            Dm            F   G   C
I'll be your candle on the wat-er, til every 
Am      F        Bb
wave is warm and bright.
G  E       Am           Gm   F
My soul is there beside you, let this candle 
C
guide you.
F                 C                G
Soon you'll see a golden stream of light.


BRIDGE:
  Bb       C                   F
A cold and friendless tide has found you.
Bb            C               F
Don't let the stormy darkness pull you down.
Am   C       D           G
I'll paint a ray of hope around you.
F               G    F            G
Circling in the air, lighted by a prayer.



#3.
C            Dm            F   G   C
I'll be your candle on the wat-er, this flame 
  Am              Bb
inside of me will grow.
G    Am                 Gm       F
Keep holding on, you'll make it..here's my hand,
   C
so take it.
F                        C  Bb     F       Fm
Look for me reaching out to shore..as sure as
       C    D   F          G       C  G F
rivers flow.....I'll never let you go.



OUTRO:
     G             C   G F      G             C
I'll never let you go......I'll never let you go..(Fade.)
