Verse 1:
                     F           C        Dm
You don't have to believe every single thought
                A          Bb
That tumbles through your head
                 C          F          C
Just 'cause it sounds like you talking
           F           C
Sometimes all you can do
              Dm                 A          Bb
Is say goodnight and tuck your demons into beds
                C          F     C
'Cause they're not worth fighting

Chorus:
               Dm             A      Bb
Turn out the lights on your racing mind
               Dm             A      Bb
Turn out the lights on your racing mind

Verse 2:
            F
a running list
              C                    Dm
Of all your doubts and your dead ends
              A                    Bb
And when you pull yourself out of bed
                C             F          C
You taste them on the tip of your tongue
               F                   C             Dm
And in the morning when you're standing in the shower
             A          Bb
With the water pouring down
              C            F        C
You dwell on all you ever did wrong

Chorus:
               Dm             A      Bb
Turn out the lights on your racing mind
               Dm             A      Bb
Turn out the lights on your racing mind

Bridge:
      Dm             A

What answers will you find?
                A            Bb
Turn out the lights on your mind
  Dm               A             Bb   Dm
Oh, turn out the lights on your mind
                A            Bb
Turn out the lights on your mind
  Dm               A             Bb
Oh, turn out the lights on your mind

Verse 3:
                     F           C        Dm
You don't have to believe every single thought
                A          Bb
That tumbles through your head
                 C                F
Just 'cause it sounds like you talking
