Tom : G
Am   Em   C   D   D7   D

[Verse 1]
D
Broadway traffic streaming light
D
She came from California
Cadd9 G
Running from daylight into this endless electric twilight
D
And when she dies a ghost is born
D Cadd9
Singing "Get up, get up, get up, get up out of your memories
G
Get out of the sunlight, get out of that sleeping western town"

[Pre-Chorus]
F Cadd9/E D
Got a little bit of running for you now
F Cadd9/E
Got a little way to run

[Chorus]
Cadd9
To answer all our hopes and fears
G
A king is leaving Union Square
F
Did we leave the light on? (Did we leave the light on?)
Cadd9
Does he need a light on? (Does he need a light on?)
Cadd9 G
The king is screaming highway songs of blood and liеs, of hope and wrong
F
Did we leavе the light on? (Did we leave the light on?)
Cadd9
Does he need a light on?

[Verse 2]
D
Yesterday when we get older
D
We'll look back on all the times
Cadd9 G
He had you putting a face on instead of just walking away
D
So paint your face black and blue again
D Cadd9
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up new and put on the clothes
G
That make you feel like you're not broken

[Pre-Chorus]
F Cadd9/E D
He put a little bit of color in your eye
F Cadd9
You got a little bit of color

[Chorus]
Cadd9
To answer all our hopes and prayers
G
An angel sang in Union Square
F
Did she leave the light on? (Did she leave the light on?)
Cadd9
Do we need a light on?
Cadd9
The congregation came to stare
G
To touch her dress, to pull her hair
F
They tore her clothes and left her there
Cadd9
Did she need a light on? (Does she need a light on?)
F
Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?)
Am
Do we need a light on? (Do we need a light on?)
Em
Do we need a light on?

[Instrumental]
D   Cadd9   G   D   Cadd9   G   F   Cadd9/E   D   F   Cadd9/E

[Verse 3]
D
The daydream nations won't come true
D
The ghosts you made up ghosted you
Cadd9 G
The angel learns to live with things that make her feel uneasy
D
And after all the dreaming's done
D Cadd9
She screams "Wake up, wake up, wake up, this is a recording, a ghost of England
G
Awake in a dream of America"

[Pre-Chorus]
F Cadd9/E D
You see him coming out the corner of your eye
F Cadd9/E
You can hear him breathing when he runs

[Chorus]
Cadd9
The king of all our hopes and fears
G
His train departing Union Square
F
Just moved to somewhere south of here
Cadd9
Did he leave a light on? (Did he leave a light on?)
Cadd9
Her feathers stale with sex and beer
G
The angel of the pavement cries
F
"If God is dead, why am I here?
Cadd9 F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)
Am F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)
Am F
Did he leave a light on for me? (Did he leave a light on?)
Am Em
Did he leave a light on for me?"

[Outro]
