Verse
D A7
I woke up this morning
D A7
Same old questions in my head
D A7
At least the weather's getting cooler now
Bm7 Gsus2
No longer forced to leave my bed
D A7
The sun shines through my window
D A7
Makes my old house creak and moan
D A7
Reminds me of the old lady down the market
Dm7 Gsus2
Sitting in the sun, stretching her weary bones
G A G A
And I'll leave the light on
G A
So you can see
G A G A
I'll leave the light on
G A7
Should you decide to visit me
Verse
D A7 D A7
Time is time and time is time and time just rolls along
D A7
It's with you every second
Bm7 Gsus2
Though it has no shape or form
D A7
Sometimes I get so anxious
D A7
As your path leads you away
D A7
But I know it's only my loneliness
Bm7 Gsus2
And it passes with the day
Verse
D A7
I've been an angry and a jealous man
D A7
And I have no right to be
D A7
Perhaps it's just my wicked, wicked ways
Bm7 Gsus2
Catching up to me
D A7
Still I've done my time and I've paid the price
D A7
After all what's just a little pain
D A7
If I learn from my mistakes
Bm7 Gsus2
Then my loss becomes my gain
G A G A
Still I'll leave the light on
G A
So you can see
G A G A
I'll leave the light on
G A
Should you decide
G A D11 C#m Bm A G D/F# A7
Should you decide to visit me
Verse
D A7
This is the end that is no end
D A7
With the beginning yet to come
D A7
I'm going to throw the doors wide open
Bm7 Gsus2
I'm going to let my spirit run
D A7
I'm going to take the path that is most yielding
D A7
And in time my steps shall disappear
D A7
I'll pound my head against the wall no more
Bm7 Gsus2
I'll be still so I can hear
Verse
D A7
And if I drop all my pretensions
D A7
About how much you broke my heart
D A7
I really do feel grateful
Bm7 Gsus2
As we drift further apart
D A7
I will follow my distant vision
D A7
I'm going to listen to my voice
D A7
You showed me the way to freedom
Bm7 Gsus2 G A
You really made the only choice
G A
And so you see
G A G A
I'll leave the light on
G A
Should you decide
G A D11
Should you ever decide to visit me
End
