Turn On The Light

	  		C 
You run down the strip, down the strip right through me 
Em 
The rain on the windscreen, blistering the stop sign 
C 
Turn in the rubies your mother did buy you 
Em 
Through this land I roar 

C 
You made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born 
Em 
Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly 
D 
Bless this strip as it runs right through me 
C 
Bless this strip as it runs right through me 

C 
She fades to the background, proof reads a story 
Em 
Kills all the characters and crosses out the heroine 
C 
Kissing an American, she told me she bought me 
Em 
Through this land I roar 

C 
She made me bold like a whore, wish I'd never been born 
Em 
Got a good looking corpse hanging on to me tightly 
D 
Bless this strip as it runs right through me 
C 
Bless this strip as it runs right through me

Love, turn on the light 
         Em                         C 
It's so dark in there, inside her life 
       G                D 
And I know, what it's like 
           Em              C 
To feel loved and to not like your self 

She dragged all the blood to the back of my brain 
Filled to the line, smoked on an elephant's tusk 
Punch drunk, bitten, and bleeding I became  
Tame, feeble in the heroine one of us 
And I hear mutants screaming 
And I ride on the crest of waves 
And I stuck as a joker's feeling 
And I still hear demons breathing, and 

Love, turn on the light 
It's so dark in there, inside her life 
And I know, what it's like 
To feel loved and to not like your self 

The sun had dropped, I'm sweating in a carcass 
I've given up on me, I've given up on Marcus 
I'm carrying my casket, looking for the enemy 
I'm down on my knees, surrendering to Valerie 
And all, I feel my head is racing 
And I, feel my shoulders bracing 
I, know I'm sick to my bones  
And I, know I can't get back home now 

Love, turn on the light 
It's so dark in there, inside her life 
And I know, what it's like 
To feel loved and to not like your self 

C                        G 
Take me far, from this sweet city stench 
        Am 
Where friends all betray each other 
     Em                D 
And I'm just another lover to a 
C                         G 
Take me far, from this sweet city stench 
        Am        
Where friends all betray each other 
     Em                D 
And I'm just another lover to a friend 
To a friend, to a friend, to a friend  
Oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far, oh take me far
