Verse 1:
 
Em        D/F#               G6   D/F#
Faithful reasons still unknown
Em                D/F#           G6     Asus4
Like Bleak House fog seems everywhere
Em             D/F#       G6     D/F#
The truth has faded into stone
Em            D/F#             G6            First verse: D/F#  Second verse: Asus4
And hope lies freezing in the midnight air

Am7              D
Though dark our days may seem
Gmaj7       Em
This is a diff’rent dream
F#m7-5         B7                     Em    E
Their freedom light don’t shine at all
 
 
Chorus:
 
Cmaj7     D      Cmaj7       D
So I will light a candle for you
Cmaj7        D             Cmaj7
And keep it burning in the night
    D
And pray that you’re all right
Cmaj7  D      Cmaj7       D
I will light a candle for you
Cmaj7    D              Cmaj7    D
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)
