Verse 1:
C  C/B Am       F  G
Don't you know I've been here before?
    C    Am     F  G
I can't help myself, I'm an open door
C  C/B Am       F  G
See these rooms in their melancholy gloom
 C    Am     F  G
It's so dark in here in my palace of ruin


Chorus:
F
On and off, I turn the lights
G

Even when it's dark at night, oh
C
Shadows flicker, then they vanish
  Am
I'm famished, I'm famished
F
Tenderly, I tend to me
G
As a mother really ought to be
C                Am
But alas, I find no arms to hold mine

Verse 2:
C  C/B Am       F  G
Don't you know that your scars are on show?
      C    Am        F  G
As they've always been when you're mad at me
C  C/B Am       F  G
Apologize two or three hundred times
 C    Am     F  G
It's just sound you make when you believe your lies

Chorus:
F
On and off, I turn the lights
G
Even when it's dark at night, oh
C
Shadows flicker, then they vanish
  Am
I'm famished, I'm famished
F
Tenderly, I tend to me
E
As a mother really ought to be
C          G      Am
But alas, I find no arms to hold mine

Outro:
C  C/B  Am     F     G
I've been told not to let it take hold
C  C/B  Am     F     G
Resist the embrace of this darkened place
C  C/B  Am     F     G
But here I lie in this orange evening light
C  C/B  Am     F     A   Gsus4 G Gsus4
With the sun in my eyes as I wait for you

Wait for you

Wait for you
