Verse 1:
Dm
The second someone mentioned you were all alone
          Bb
I could feel the trouble coursing through your veins
       F                C
Now I know, it's got a hold
        Dm
Just a phone called left unanswered, had me sparking up
         Bb
These cigarettes won't stop me wondering where you are
          F           C
Don't let go, keep a hold
 
Pre-chorus:
        Dm
If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill
 Bb
Guiding like a lighthouse to a place where you'll be
                  F
Safe to feel at grace 'cause we've all made mistakes
                     C
If you've lost your way...
 
Chorus:
                       Dm Bb
I will leave the light on
                       F  C
I will leave the light on
                       Dm Bb
I will leave the light on
                       F  C
I will leave the light on
 
Verse 2:
 Dm
Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind
 Bb
Lately you've been searching for a darker place
    F              C
To hide, that's alright
           Dm
But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us
     Bb
I refuse to lose another friend to drugs
           F              C
Just come home, don't let go
 
Pre-chorus:
        Dm
If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill
 Bb
Guiding like a lighthouse to a place where you'll be
                  F
Safe to feel at grace 'cause we've all made mistakes
                     C
If you've lost your way...
 
Chorus:
                       Dm Bb
I will leave the light on
                       F  C
I will leave the light on
                       Dm Bb
I will leave the light on
                       F  C
I will leave the light on
 
Outro:
        Dm
If you look into the distance, there's a house upon the hill
 Bb
Guiding like a lighthouse, it's a place where you'll be
                 F
Safe to feel at grace and if you've lost your way
                     C
If you've lost your way (I will leave the light on)
Dm
And I know you're down and out now, but I need you to be brave
Bb
Hiding from the truth ain't gonna make this all okay
               F
I'll see your pain if you don't feel our grace
                       C
And you've lost your way
                       Dm  Bb
I will leave the light on
                       F  C
I will leave the light on
                                 Dm
'Cause I will leave the light on
