Leave The Light On
(Bjarne Schmidt, DK)
F# C#/F
I seen myself with a dirty face,
G#m
I cut my luck with a dirty ace
B
I leave the light on, I leave the light on
F# C#/F
I went from zero to minus ten
G#m
I drank your wine then, I stole your man
B C# F#
I leave the light on, I leave that light on.
D#m B C#
F# C#/F
Daddy ain't that bad he just plays rough
G#m
I ain't that scarred when I'm covered up
B
I leave the light on, I leave the light on
F# C#/F
Little girl hiding underneath the bed
B
Was it something I did, must be something I said
G#m Bm
I leave the light on, better leave the light on.
F# D#m
I wanna love, I wanna live
B
I don't know much about it
Bm
I never did, no no
17 and I'm all messed up inside
I cut myself just to feel alive
I leave the light on, I leave the light on
21 on the run, on the run from myself
From myself and everyone
I leave the light on, I leave the light on
Better leave the light on.
F# D#m
Cause I wanna love, I wanna live
B
I don't know much about it
Bm
I never did,
F# D#m
I don't know what to do, can the damage be undone
G#m Bm
I swore to God that I'd never be what I've become
B F#
Lucky stars and fairy tales
C# D#m
I'm gonna bathe myself in a wishin' well
B F#
Pretty scars from cigarettes
E B B/C#
I never will forget, I never will forget
F# C#/F
I'm still afraid to be alone
G#m
Wish that moon would follow me home
B
I leave the light on, I leave the light on
F# C#/F
I ain't that bad I'm just messed up
B Bm
I ain't that sad but I'm sad enough
