Jamie T - Turn On The Light chords
Start Jamming...
[C]
You run down [G] the strip, down the strip, right through me
The rain will no longer scream, blistering the stop [C] signs
Turned into rubies your mother did [Em] buy you
Through this land I rot
You made [C] me bold like a whore, which I've never been [Em] born
Got good looking corpse hanging on to me [D] tightly
Bless this strip as it runs right through [C] me
Bless this strip as it runs right through me
Face to the [G] background, proofreads the story
Feels all the characters, crosses out a hero
[C] Kissing an [G] American, she told me she [Em] brought me
Through this land I rot
She made [C] me bold like a whore, which I've never [A] been [G] born
Got good looking corpse hanging on [B] to [C] me [D] tightly
Bless this strip [Bm] as it runs right through [C] me
Bless this strip as it runs right through [G] me
No, don't [D]
lie
It's [E] so dark in there, [Em] inside [C] of my head
And [G] I know, know what it's [D] like
To [E] feel loved, to [C] love like yourself
She dragged all the blood [G] to the back of my brain
Veiled to the light, smoked on an elephant's tarse
Punched junk beer and then bleeding
I became tame, fiddled in a hair of water [C] rocks
And I hear mutants [G] screaming
Right on the [E] crest of [C] waves
[D] And I'm stopped as a joker's nail
[C] And I still hear demons [G] breathing
No, don't [D]
lie
It's [E] so dark in there, inside [C] of my head
And [G] I know, know what [D] it's like
To [E] feel loved, to [C] love like yourself
[G]
Sunlight drops, I'm sweating in a car
Cause I've given up on me, I've given up on my heart
Cause I'm carrying my casket
Looking for the enemy, I'm down on my knees
Surrendering to [C] Valerie
And I feel my hand is [G] racing
I feel my [E] shoulders bracing
[D]
I know I'm stitching my bones
[C] And I know I can't get back on [G] the ground
No, don't [D]
lie
It's so [E]
dark in there, [Em] inside [C] of my head
And [G] I know, know what [D] it's like
To [E] feel [Em] loved, to [C] love like yourself
Take me far, from [G] this wasted estance
[Am] Where friends all betray each other
[Em] And I'm just another lover to [C] a friend
Take me far, [G] from this wasted estance
[A] Where [Am] friends all betray each other
[Em] And I'm just another lover to [C] a friend
To [G] a friend
[Am]
[Em]
[C] Oh, take me far
