Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse

Please leave your light on for me

Let it shine all through the night

I know by now you're not expecting me

 I've been so long out of sight

I'm coming through the darkest hour now, mama

Don't give up on me just yet

Well I got no excuses for ya

 But I sure got some regrets

I sure got some regrets

Chorus

I went out from the halls of grace

Turned my back on my own

Please leave your light on for me

 Cause I've been taking the long way home

Instrumental

Verse

Please go easy when you see me, mama

Cause I just might fall apart

I know I've tried your patience

I know I've stretched your heart

The sky fell down hard upon me

I've been crawling in the dirt

Nobody's fault but mine for sure

And not just me who's hurt

And not just me who's hurt

Chorus

I went out from the halls of grace

My soul turned into stone

Please leave your light on for me

 Cause I've been taking the long way home
