Night Light


key of D, that's me!

Bm - x24432
A - x02220
G - 320033
D - x00232
OPEN2 (*shrug*) - 222222


[Bm]
 Pull my mask so tight
[A]
Till it pinches my skin
[G]               [Bm]
 Nerves strung so high
[G]             [A]
 I am a mandolin

[Bm]
 Jenny calls from Montana
[G]
 She's only passing through
[D]
 Probably never see her again, in this life, I guess
[A]
 Not sure what I'm gonna do

          [G]
Plug a night light in
              [Bm]
Leave the porch light on
               [G]
Because the small dark corners
           [Bm]
Have designs on me
                 [A]
Live like an outlaw
                    [G]
Clutching gold coins in his claw

[Bm] [OPEN2] x2

Room full of ambitious young policemen
Everybody trying to make his mark
I was a red dot blinking on the screen up overhead
And then the room went dark

Dream of maybe waking up someday
And wanting you less than I do
This is a dream, though
It's never gonna come true

Plug a night light in
Leave the porch light on
Because the small dark corners
Are establishing a colony
Live like an outlaw
Clutching gold coins in his claw

[Bm] [OPEN2] [G] [Bm] [OPEN2] [G] [G]

Can't ever set aside the sweetness
Of the days before the crews put up the border
Fields full of wet rain
Cling tight to their memory forever

Think about Montana when I close my eyes
Possibly Jenny's headed east
Count a couple of stray hopes out loud
May their numbers one day be increased

Plug a night light in
Leave the porch light on
Because the small dark corners 
Breathe like heavy animals
Live like an outlaw
Clutching gold coins in his claw

[Bm] [OPEN2] until end;
 end on [Bm]

End riff (not sure)
