                HOME (LEAVE THE LIGHTS ON)
                       FIELD REPORT

CAPO: 2nd FRET

INTRO:  C

VERSE:
F       C             G        C
 Cold snapped like a coiled spring
         F         C          G
You can feel the frost coming on
        F   C       G                 Am
We are marigolden dropping orange and umber,
 G             C   C
Barely holding on
      G             C
Just barely holding on

        F             C         G         C
And now   downtown's dolled up tinsel and angels
          F         C         G                C
Seasons sneak like haircuts, teased apart and tangled
          F             C            G           Am
We were fraying for a while, and we took it all down
      C                    G      C
Like garland hanging off traffic signals


CHORUS:
  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
                   G
But I'm on my way home

  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
        G          C
And I'm on my way home


VERSE:
F             C                G   C
  Putting on old clothes in a new way
F                 C         G    C
  Putting on the pose of a new stage
      F          C          G           Am
Waking  up everyday just a little bit changed
        C         G         C
As it breaks over us like waves

F               C       G         C
 And long live beauty short live pain
F          C          G       C
 Lust for wonder and hunger pangs
F           C          G        Am
 Face your fears, but not your shame
         C            G     C
Doesn't end it just wears away


CHORUS:
  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
                   G
But I'm on my way home

  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
        G          C
And I'm on my way home


VERSE;
            F       C            G      C
I've been clawing away at what's underneath
  F          C      G                  C
Closer than solid ground beneath your feet
  F           C         G        Am
Closer, even now, than lips and teeth
  C               G      C
Closer now, then out of reach


BREAK:
         F      C                G       C
And the body remembers what the mind forgets
  F              C              G
Archives every heartbreak, and cigarette
           F     C
And these reset bones
      G         Am
They might not hold,
     G                   C
Yeah, but they might yet


CHORUS:
  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
                   G
And I'm on my way home


OUTRO:
  F
Leave the lights on

Cause it might be nighttime
        C
When I get there
        G          C   C
And I'm on my way home
    G          C   C
I'm on my way home
    G          C    C
I'm on my way home
