Verse 1:
E Bm
They say turn the bright lights on
A E (w/ a hammer-on at 2nd fret G)
And there you'll find the truth
E Bm
Here, open up this book
A E (same hammer)
And now you'll find the proof
E Bm
It feels like a can of worms
A
Keep the lid on tight, and they say
Chorus:
E D C#m G
Don't let it get too bright (x3)
E D C#m D E
No not this time

Verse 2:
E. Bm
They tell me it takes sorrow, boy
A E
To help you feel the joy
They say it takes poverty
To let you love a toy
Now you can't have the good
Until you've shared the bad
Chorus:
Don't let it get too sad (x3)
No, not this time, time
Back to D-C play. but this time Houser kicks on Distortion
towards the end of that part, and the chords go from G-C,
listen and you'll see.
Verse 3:
They say it takes hardship, boy
To let you love the rest
Sometimes underneath the load
Is where I show my best
Go, put your work clothes on
Go and leave your mark
And they say
Chorus:
Don't let it get too dark (x3)
No, not this time
D to C one time, then the happy section

the solo for this part:
|-------------------------------|
|--6-6-/8-8-5-6-5---5-5-6-5-3---|
|----------------5-5------------| repeat this too,
|-------------------------------| I forget a little part,
|-------------------------------| what can you do?

then go back to the distortion G-C part
with this little lick:
|----10----10----10----10---|
|-10^12-10^12-10^12-10^12---|
There's a little more to this too, but I don't have the ole
lute with me.
Whew, lots of parts, but hopefully you can figure it out.
Have fun!
