Paul, I never knew you were such a Philistine! Here's the CRD
for the famous "Leave a light on for me" (axe fantastic) - note
the cunning key change for intro and chorus. Something else new
to learn?
I hope y'all have as much fun playing this as I did working it out!
Leave a light on for me
Artist: Belinda Carlisle
[Intro]
D A Em Bm A (x2)
G
[Verse 1]
C G Dm Am G
Take my hand - tell me what you are feeling
C G Dm Am G
Understand - this is just the beginning
C G
Although I have to go
Dm F
It makes me feel like crying
C G A
I don't know when I'll see you again...
[Chorus]
D [D fill - twiddle your pinkie on top E string]
Honey leave a light on for me
Bm F#m
I'll be there before you close the door
Bm F#m G A
To give you all the love that you need
D [D fill]
Darling leave a light on for me
Bm F#m
Cos when the world takes me away
Bm F#m G A
You are still the air that I breathe
G A
I can't explain, I don't know
D Gm
Just how far I have to go...
D
But darling I'll keep the peace
A G
Just leave a light on for me
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
Yes I know what I'm asking is crazy
You could go, just get tired of waiting
But if I lose your love
Put off by my desire
That would be the one regret of my life
[Chorus]
A G A
Just like a spark lights up the dark
G
Baby that's your heart
G
Baby that's your heart
G
Baby that's your heart
[Axe Solo]
(bend that whammy bar!)
[repeat Chorus to fade, assorted whines and overdubs]
