Beacon - Matt Duncan

[Verse] Am7 D7 GM7 Em  [Intro] G GM7

I got friends in New York City    G Em

Cos everyone I know left town

That's the place your day lit dreams go

Where you can't see the sun go down


[Chorus] Am7 Bm7 Em A - Am D7 ()

Hold your head up, you're a beacon

(You pull me (northward) in my car)

(You don't have to hit the big time),

    baby - We know who you are

                                  [Intro]

I got friends in LA County

Where the hillsides shine like stars

And the people float like gold dust

Through the red rope district bars


[Chorus] (G Em)   ((westward)) (…)

[Chorus] (G Em-X) (Don't let them think

     you've come that far) (You were

     always standing in the spotlight)

[Solo - Verse] (x2)


[Outro - Chorus - Arp] (G Em x8)

It's getting cold out on that big lake

And the water's painted blue

Don't let the skyline fool you, baby

You know what to do (x5)
