Porch Light

[Verso 1]
 
 Em7                                     C 
I would ask you how you've been, it's all over the internet 
     Em7 
Oh, yeah, I mean we knew that after all 
 Em7                                       C 
If you're looking for an autopsy or a half-assed half-apology 

        Em7 
Then I think you picked the wrong time to make this call 
 


[Verso 2]
 
Em7                                C 
It is not irrelevant that you stopped 
 Em7 
But I'm giving you the benefit 'cause it's raining now 
Em7                                  C 
I'll tell you how the weather is, and I'll slip into some eloquently 
Em7 
Rambling mixed-messaging, I should shut you down  



[Refrão]

Em7 
But you don't, and it's cold, and it's cold, and it's cold 
C 
And I don't know, I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alon, I'm alone 


[Verso 3]
 
Em7                                             C 
I hope you tell m that you're winding down, that you lost the taste to face the crowd 
Em7 
That whatever made you famous made you sick 
Em7                                   C 
But you can only do what pain allows, it ain't up to you to make it out 
Em7 
And there ain't no shame in calling this thing quits 


[Refrão]

Em7 
But you don't, and you don't, and you don't, and you don't, and you don't 
C 
You're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost 
 


[Refrão]
 
       Em7    G            D        C 
But Your Poison Is spreadin' to my lungs 
         Em7           G        D                     C 
I ain't holdin' a breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all 
          Em7           G                 D 
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you 
                            C 
I'll leave the porch light on 
Em7       G 
Heartbroken, each mornin' 
D                           C 
When it's me that turns it off 
 


[Pós-Refrão]
 
Em7 
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes 
 


[Verso 4]
 
     Em7                              C 
You act like we just sit up here and wait for you to reappear 
       Em7 
But, baby, there are bills to pay and your dad's road needs salt 
       Em7                                 C 
And I try to drown out all the talk, the eyeballs in the parking lots 
      Em7 
And tell people it ain't me you want, but I guess you're my fault  



[Refrão]
 
Em7 
But they don't, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost 
       C 
And I choke, and I choke, and I choke, and I choke on the

       Em7    G            D        C 
But Your Poison Is spreadin' to my lungs 
         Em7           G        D                     C 
I ain't holdin' a breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all 
          Em7           G                 D 
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you 
                            C 
I'll leave the porch light on 
Em7       G 
Heartbroken, each mornin' 
D                           C 
When it's me that turns it off 
 


[Pós-Refrão]
 
Em7 
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

But Your Poison Is spreadin' to my lungs 
         Em7           G        D                     C 
I ain't holdin' a breath, ain't holdin' any faith at all 
          Em7           G                 D 
And I'll pray for you, be in pain for you 
                            C 
I'll leave the porch light on

Heartbroken, each mornin'

[Pós-Refrão]
 
Em7 
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes 
C 
You're a ghost, you're a ghost, you're a ghost
