Capo on 3rd fret

G H7 Em C

[Verse 1]

Now you look for love in times of hate

How many swipes for a blow of fate?

You keep the light on, you keep the light on

You keep the night light on

[Verse 2]

Every day is like the same old song

Until everything right goes wrong

you keep a light on, you keep a light on

You keep the night light on

[Chorus]

G H7

Hold your broken dream up high

Oh you know you try, oh you know you try

It's the worst case scenario lullaby

[Verse 3]

And then the rent is just a little too late

Ain't gonna be no birthday cake

You keep the light on, you keep the light on

You keep the night light on

Oh you know you try, oh you know you try

It's the worst case scenario lullaby

G H7

Oh you know you try, oh you know you try

It's the worst case scenario lullaby

[Verse 4]

Even if the cops come and knock on your door

And the pills spill out on the floor

You keep the light on, you keep the light on

You keep the night light on

[Chorus]

G H7

Hold your broken dream up high

Oh you know you try, oh you know you try

It's the worst case scenario lullaby

[Bridge]

Something's gonna change

Something's gotta change

Hold on, hold on

Hold on to something good

Something's gonna change

Something's gotta change

Hold on, hold on

Hold on to something good

[Verse 5]

Try to soothe yourself to sleep my dear

You know this whole mess is born from fear

You keep the light on, you keep the light on

You keep the night light on

You keep the light on, you keep the light on

You keep the night light on
