Sleeping With The Lights On

[Intro] C  G  Am  F

[First Part]

     C
Like poetry, you said some things
    G
And I suppose that we would be
  Am                   F         C
I had to just agree to disagree
C
Empty dresser drawer
            G
You wore my sweater out the door
              Am
And poured my heart on to the floor
             F
And all what for?

[Pre-Chorus]

           C
And in my head, you're still calling
 me up
                           G
And I'm still calling your bluff
G
You say it's not really done
                           Am
I'm still the one that you want
Am
But it's a dream that I lost
                         F
And I just can't turn it off, turn 
it off
 Turn it off, turn it off

[Chorus]

       C
On the darkest nights, I can hear 
you
Calling
     G
From inside my mind, playing like a 
song
            Am
And it goes on and on, ever since 
you up
    F
And gone

I've been sleeping with the lights 
on
C
Flip the switch, everything gets 
heavy
       G
And my mind's a bitch, playing all 
the

Memories
        Am                       
And it goes on and on, ever since 
     F
you up
And gone

I've been sleeping with the lights 
on

( C )

[Second Part]

C
Memories, they fill the wall
     G
Like paint and nails and frames that
 fall
    Am
And break the smile beneath the 
window
F
Pane, oh
      C
Those sheets still smell like you
         G
And your pistachio perfume
           Am
So I don't go back in that room
                  F
'Cause what's the use?

[Pre-Chorus]

          C
And in my head, you're still calling
 me up
                           G
And I'm still calling your bluff

You say it's not really done
                           Am
I'm still the one that you want

But it's a dream that I lost
                         F
And I just can't turn it off, turn 
it off
 Turn it off, turn it off

[Chorus]

       C
On the darkest nights, I can hear 
you
Calling
     G
From inside my mind, playing like a 
song
            Am
And it goes on and on, ever since 
you up
    F
And gone

I've been sleeping with the lights 
on
C
Flip the switch, everything gets 
heavy
       G
And my mind's a bitch, playing all 
the
Memories
        Am                       
And it goes on and on, ever since 
     F
you up
And gone

I've been sleeping with the lights 
on

[Post-Refrão]

          G
Lights on
                            Am    F
Sleeping with the lights on

       C
On the darkest nights, I can hear 
you
Calling
     G
From inside my mind, playing like a 
song
            Am
And it goes on and on, ever since 
you up
    F
And gone
(Sleeping with the lights on)

[Chorus]

C
Flip the switch, everything gets 
heavy
       G
And my mind's a bitch, playing all 
the
Memories
            Am
And it goes on and on, ever since 
you up
    F
And gone

I've been sleeping with the lights 
on
