She mo[D]ved so well 'cause she was a da[Em]ncer
She went sli[F]ding through my questions
Gl[C]iding 'round the an[G]swer

What[D]ever it was, she knew it was ho[Em]ly
And each ti[F]me I tried to hold her
Her sm[C]ile came sad and slo[G]wly
She said, "No one kn[D]ows me."

Co[G]uld you put your light on please
It's k[Am]ind of dark tonight
And I f[D7]eel a little lonely
Yes, I ne[C]ed a little li[G]ght
Co[G]uld you put your light on please
Let me h[Am]ear a friendly sound
I could ma[D7]ke it through 'til morning
If you could l[C]et your light shine do[G]wn

S[D]he had a dream, I had my typewr[Em]iter
While I was ha[F]cking out such a heavy world
She was wea[C]ving one much lig[G]hter
But I'll nev[D]er know just how much it c[Em]ost her
And as I sl[F]ept beside her
Somet[C]hing turned and tos[G]sed her
And it did till I los[D]t her

C[G]ould you put your light on please
It's k[Am]ind of dark tonight
And I f[D7]eel a little lonely
Yes, I ne[C]ed a little li[G]ght
Co[G]uld you put your light on please
Let me h[Am]ear a friendly sound
I could ma[D7]ke it through 'til morning
If you could l[C]et your light shine do[G]wn

B[C]right times were brighter
Than they'd ev[Dm]er been before, I tell you
Ni[C]ght times were lighter
But they'll nev[Dm]er, ne[D#]ver be no mo[D]re

[G]Could you put your light on please
It's k[Am]ind of dark tonight
And I f[D7]eel a little lonely
Yes, I ne[C]ed a little li[G]ght
Co[G]uld you put your light on please
Let me h[Am]ear a friendly sound
I could ma[D7]ke it through 'til morning
If you could l[C]et your light shine do[G]wn
