[Verse 1: Chris Martin]

When you try your best, but you don't succeed

When you get what you want, but not what you need

When you feel so tired, but you can't sleep

Stuck in reverse

[Verse 2: Chris Martin]

And the tears come streamin' down your face

When you lose somethin' you can't replace

When you love someone, but it goes to waste

Could it be worse?

[Chorus: Chris Martin, Chris Martin & with Will Champion]

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

[Verse 3: Chris Martin]

And high up above or down below

When you're too in love to let it go

But if you never try, you'll never know

Just what you're worth

[Chorus: Chris Martin, Chris Martin & Will Champion]

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

[Interlude]

[Bridge: Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman & Will Champion]

Tears stream down your face

When you lose somethin' you cannot replace

Tears stream down your face, and I...

Tears stream down your face

I promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your face, and I...

[Chorus: Chris Martin]

Lights will guide you home

And ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you
