[Intro]
Dm Dsus4 Bb F C
[Verse 1]
DmYou’re sitting on the porch,
DmWith a bottle and a smoke,
BbStaring past the tree line,
BbLike you saw a ghost,
FI asked if are you OK,
FYou said: “Yeah I’m just tired”,
CBut your voice was burned,
CLike a broke down fire.
[Verse 2]
DmI didn’t press and maybe that’s on me,
BbYou aways hit your head when no one could see,
FAnd now I’m driving through the dark,
FCursin’ at the moon,
C CWishin’ I’d had more than just the lead too soon.
[Chorus]
DmDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky,
BbThought you had more than just me by your side,
FI was your calming story, final try,
CAnd I just let it fade,
CDidn’t even say goodbye,
Dm BbDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky.
[Verse 3]
DmYou always joked the world was one big lie,
BbBut you laughed like hell when the band played Caroline,
FAnd now you’re line is folded and your boots are still,
C CYour name it’s quite in the wind on that hill.
[Verse 4]
DmI found your note in the glove box last week,
BbJust three lines long and it cut so deep,
FSaid sorry for being too much, not enough,
C CThis old world ain’t got room for broken love.
[Chorus]
DmDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky,
BbThought you had more than just me by your side,
FI was your calming story, final try,
CAnd I just let it fade,
CDidn’t even say goodbye,
Dm C Bb BbDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky.
[Bridge]
GmNow every sunset is a loaded gun,
C Dm Every mile back home, I come undone,
DmIf I’d known I swear I would have stayed,
Bb Summer grids don’t wash away.
[Chorus]
DmDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky,
BbThought I was just a flicker passin’ by,
FBut I was your anchor, your lullaby,
CBut I just let it go, never asked you why,
Dm C Bb BbDidn’t know I was the last light in your sky,
[Outro]
DmNow I leave porch lights on for no one,
BbTalk to your ghost when the day is done,
FStill hopin’ maybe I was wrong this time,
C Dm Bb F CBut you ain’t coming back to that sky.
