Intro
E C A (Repeat riff throughout song except bridge – go to D)
E C A
I got a history in this town,
E C A
I think that I should move,
There’s nothing round here that I haven’t done,
And I’ve got nothing here left to prove,
There’s nowhere round here that I haven’t been in more ways than one,
I got a history in this town,
Now I think I’m done and I say:
(Chorus)
Hotel, Motel, Trust-House, Forty,
You make me feel nice, you make me feel naughty,
You make me wanna keep the lights on,
You make me wanna keep the lights on.
I got a history in this town,
I think that I should go,
Everyone just sees me around,
And there’s no-one here that I don’t know,
There’s nothing, no-one, nowhere round here that doesn’t leave me feeling blue,
I got a history in this town,
And a future somewhere else with you and I say:
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
D
Such a little girl, the best I’ve ever seen,
E C A
Oh won’t you come and be my illuminated dream.
I want you like a power station,
I want you like a power station,
I want you about a power station’s worth of illumination and I say:
(Chorus)
…You make me wanna keep the lights on (repeat)
