Buffalo Tom - Porchlight

^GHey when the ^Emneed becomes too s^Amtrong or long And ^Cdrawn out for me to ^Gtake Like a ^Emcigarette burn to the ^Amfleshy turbines ^COF my h^Geart That faded ^Emafternoon floats b^Creezily into my memor^Gy Cool shafts of li^Emght appear and ^AmI'm left here C G Em Am C x2 Standing naked on my own

^GYour voice is sm^Emall on my voi^Amce mail system A mi^Cllion miles awa^Gy But if I tur^Emned it off I w^Amould not hear the l^Cittle things you s^Gay "The world must chil^Eml" And like a ^Amking I ring up o^Cld acquaintance^Gs It's like the man ^Emsays "I ain't h^Amere on business" It's all work anywa^Dy On any other day^C They say the li^Amght has got no equa^Dl C G Em Am C x2 On any other day

^GThe date's ir^Emrelevant but she w^Amas drunk In the h^Ceat of the June n^Gight The faces ^Emin the windows - ^Amshouts rang out Into d^Cawn's early li^Gght The flailing ^Emarms and scrambling eg^Amgs I fled

On ^Cmy two shambling l^Gegs "I gotta g^Emo" I said - they ^Amboth looked dead On any other d^Cay On any other da^Dy They say the li^Amght has got no equal ^D On any other da^Cy On any other da^Dy They say the l^Amight has got no equal^D Am C G Em Am C x2 On any other day

^GThe fire bla^Emzed away The ki^Amtchen porch was ^Call that RE-^Gmained And I'm out h^Emere alone - beat ^Amup and pissed UN-^Ctil this very d^Gay That old hotel ^Emrang back in f^Amuzzy time And I was r^Cavaged to the ^Gbone Your vo^Emice got smaller 'til I r^Amealized

^CIt was gon^De On any other da^Cy They'd say the l^Amight has got no ^Dequal On any other d^Cay On any other d^Day I swear the l^Amight has got no equ^Dal Am C G Em Am C x2 On any other day
