Verse 1
(D major) The runway rushed up at him as (G major) he felt

He stood out on the blacktop and
took (A major) a taxi into town
He got (D major) out down on Main Street
and went (G major) into a local bar (D major)
He bought a drink and found (A major) a seat
in a (G major) corner off the dark
Well she called (D major) up her mama to make sure the
(G major) kids were out of the house (D major)
She checked herself out
in the dining room mirror
And undid an ex (A major) tra button
on her blouse
He felt (D major) her lying next to him,
the clock (G major) said 4:00 am (D major)
He was staring at (A major) the ceiling
He couldn't move his hands (D major)

mama mama (D major) come quick
I've (G major) got the shakes and

Hey (A major) now mama don't shut

Don't you shut (G major) out the light
Don't you shut (D major) out the light
(G major) Don't you shut out the light
Don't you shut (A major) out the (D major) light
