   E      B          E        B
Remember back, when you were young
       D     A             D     A
your mother said "that's quite enough"
 G         D                    G     D
so sleep tight don't let the bedbugs bite
     E
goodnight my child

You didn't know true or false
the star is heard when the darkness falls
and under your door, creatures would squeeze
        A
and you always had to shout "Mama please..."

Chorus:
E                       A
Leave a little light on,
a little light on
D                            E
leave a little light on for me
                       A
Leave a little light on,
a little light on
D                            E
leave a little light on for me
                        A
Leave a little light on,
a little light on
D                            E
leave a little light on for me

So in love, couldn't ask for more
A hungry romance hey, you know the score
It was destiny, we had to meet
And I could hardly walk for one whole week

Coming up, she looked outta town
Miles from nowhere, broken down
In the wind and rain lost without a clue
Searching for a phone so I could tell her too

Chorus

When I get old, it's time to go
What body and ailments
Still playing shows
I'll be safe and sound for eternity
So Mr God, when you're ready for me
