Fmaj7 - C9
C
She moved so well
Dm
'Cause she was a dancer
Ebmaj7
She went sliding through my questions
Bb F
Glidin' 'round the answers
C9 Dm
Whatever it was, she knew it was holy
Ebmaj7
And each time I tried to hold her
Bb F
A smile come sad and slowly
C11 C7
She said, "No one knows me."
F
Could you put your light on please
Gm Gm9 Gm7
It's kind of dark tonight
C7 Gm9 C7
And I feel a little lonely
Bb F
Yes, I need a little light
F
Could you put your light on please
Gm Gm9 Gm7
Let me hear a friendly sound
C7
I could make it through 'til morning
Bb F
If you could let your light shine down
C7
She had a dream
Dm
I had my typewriter
Ebmaj7
While I was hacking out such a heavy world
Bb F
She was weaving one much lighter
C7 Dm
But I never knew just how much it cost her
Ebmaj7
But each time I slept beside her
Bb F
Somethin' turned and tossed her
C9 C7
And it did 'till I lost her
C
Bright times were brighter
Dm
Than they'd ever been before (I tell you)
C
Night times were lighter
Dm Ebmaj7 Dsus4 D
But they'll never, never be, no more
G
Could you put your light on please
Am7/G
It's kind of dark tonight
D7sus4
And I feel a little lonely
C
Yes, I need a little light
G
Could you put your light on please
Am7/G
Let me hear a friendly sound
D7sus4
I could make it through 'til morning
C G
If you could let your light shine down
G
Could you put your light on please
Am7/G
It's kind of dark tonight
D7sus4
And I feel a little lonely
C
Yes, I need a little light
G
Could you put your light on please
Am7/G
Let me hear a friendly sound
D7sus4
I could make it through 'til morning
C G
If you could let your light shine down
