Bb, D, Gm,
[Verse 1]
Now you look for love in times of hate
How many swipes for a blow of fate?
You keep the light on, you keep the light on
You keep the night light on
[Verse 2]
Every day is like the same old song
Until everything right goes wrong
you keep a light on, you keep a light on
You keep the night light on
[Chorus]
Hold your broken dream up high
Oh you know you try, oh you know you try
It's the worst case scenario lullaby
[Verse 3]
And then the rent is just a little too late
Ain't gonna be no birthday cake
You keep the light on, you keep the light on
You keep the night light on
[Chorus]
Hold your broken dream up high
Oh you know you try, oh you know you try
It's the worst case scenario lullaby
Oh you know you try, oh you know you try
It's the worst case scenario lullaby
[Verse 4]
Even if the cops come and knock on your door
And the pills spill out on the floor
You keep the light on, you keep the light on
You keep the night light on
[Chorus]
Hold your broken dream up high
Oh you know you try, oh you know you try
It's the worst case scenario lullaby
[Bridge]
Something's gonna change
Something's gotta change
Hold on, hold on
Hold on to something good
Something's gonna change
Something's gotta change
Hold on, hold on
Hold on to something good
[Verse 5]
Try to soothe yourself to sleep my dear
You know this whole mess is born from fear
You keep the light on, you keep the light on
You keep the night light on
You keep the light on, you keep the light on
You keep the night light on
