Could You Put Your Light On Please chords by Harry Chapin

D                              Em
She moved so well 'cause she was a dancer
            F
She went sliding through my questions
  C                  G
Gliding 'round the answer

    D                              Em
Whatever it was, she knew it was holy
           F
And each time I tried to hold her
      C                   G
Her smile came sad and slowly
                    D
She said, "No one knows me."

  G
Could you put your light on please
      Am
It's kind of dark tonight
       D7
And I feel a little lonely
         C             G
Yes, I need a little light
  G
Could you put your light on please
        Am
Let me hear a friendly sound
          D7
I could make it through 'til morning
              C                     G
If you could let your light shine down

 D                              Em
She had a dream, I had my typewriter
              F
While I was hacking out such a heavy world
           C                G
She was weaving one much lighter
            D                         Em
But I'll never know just how much it cost her
           F
And as I slept beside her
     C                  G
Something turned and tossed her
                     D
And it did till I lost her

 G
Could you put your light on please
      Am
It's kind of dark tonight
       D7
And I feel a little lonely
         C             G
Yes, I need a little light
  G
Could you put your light on please
        Am
Let me hear a friendly sound
          D7
I could make it through 'til morning
              C                     G
If you could let your light shine down

 C
Bright times were brighter
              Dm
Than they'd ever been before, I tell you
  C
Night times were lighter
               Dm    D#          D
But they'll never, never be no more

G
Could you put your light on please
      Am
It's kind of dark tonight
       D7
And I feel a little lonely
         C             G
Yes, I need a little light
  G
Could you put your light on please
        Am
Let me hear a friendly sound
          D7
I could make it through 'til morning
              C                     G
If you could let your light shine down
