[Intro]
Dm F
Bb Fadd9 [Verse]
Dm F Rand McNally atlas,
Cheap coffee stain Bb Now, I wouldn't know how to use
Fadd9
One with my life at stake Dm You were waiting on a payphone at a
F
Truck stop in Houston Bb Trying to call your mother,
Fadd9
’cause she's a worrier Dm F Handful of twenties in your overcoat Bb Fadd9 Always rolled into a pillow on
Some stranger's floor Dm F And you tell these stories
With happy endings Bb Fadd9 Only when interrupted before they’re over [Chorus]
Bb But I won't let the light fade F I won't let the light fade F C/E Dm C Chasing these glows into dawn Bb I won't let the light fade F I won't let the light fade F C/E Dm Falling asleep in their arms [Instrumental]
Dm F
Bb Fadd9 [Verse]
Dm F It seemed these highways
Were never-ending Bb Circling odds and evens,
Fadd9
The numbers ascending Dm F Searching through static in
The Wyoming plains Bb We danced to both types of music,
Fadd9
As the old joke claims Dm And I wanted for nothing,
F
I couldn't rent Bb We lived on whiskey and Twizzlers,
Fadd9
And youth's discontent Dm With this Rand McNally
F
Atlas dogging in frame Bb Fadd9 Like Old Testament verses that
Don't make sense in this decade [Chorus]
Bb Don’t let the light fade F I won’t let the light fade F C/E Dm C Chasing these glows into dawn Gm I won't let the light fade Dm I won’t let the light fade F C/E Dm C Falling asleep in their arms Bb But I won't let the light fade F I won't let the light fade C Dm Chasing these glows into dawn [Bridge]
Gm And I'm holding on Bb Holding on [Instrumental]
Dm F
Bb Fadd9 [Outro]
Dm I won’t let the light fade F Bb Fadd9 I won't let the light fade Dm I won't let the light fade F Bb Fadd9 I won't let the light fade Dm I won’t let the light fade F Bb F I won't let the light fade
