I did the best I could to lay out the chord changes to make the downbeats visible. It's in a triple meter, and hopefully with a couple listenings you should be able to figure out how the chords fit the lyrics in all the verses. Verse:
The Csweetest labor that my heart has Fknown is the Cfarm Gon which I Cstand. ‘CausCe every single seed that’s beenF sown was Cput in the Gground by my Chand and some - Ftimes the sun goes down a Clittle too soon be - Cfore the day’s work is G through and FI keep on going by the Clight of the moon when I’d C rather beG home with C you
Chorus:
Would you Cleave the porch light on for me? Would you Gleave the porch light on for Cme? I come Chome from the field when it’s too dark tFo see. Would you Cleave the porch Glight on for Cme?
Verse: I can barely stand up, there’s more to be done. Oh, the bottom field needs to be plowed. I never asked help from anyone, but Lord I can use some now. Just give me the strength to make it back home when I can’t work no more, and Lord let her be the first thing I see when I crawl through that front door. Chorus: Would you leave the porch light on for me? Would you leave the porch light on for me? To light my way back from the night so black would you leave the porch light on for me? Verse: Well I’m sick as a dog and no one can help. Oh, the pain’s more than I can bear, but still my thoughts drift to the one sweet gift: the love that we share, and I hate for you to see me like this. Oh, remember when I was strong. If I didn’t have these IVs in my wrist well, I’d hold you in my arms. Chorus: Would you leave the porch light on for me? Would you leave the porch light on for me? This hospital bed is where I’ve to be. Would you leave the porch light on for me? Verse: They say that I ain’t got long for this life Oh, they say that it’s my time to go. Darling, you’ve been the most wonderful wife that any man could know. Well you stuck by me through thick and through thin since the day you became my bride, and someday I’ll hope to see you again when we meet on the other side. Chorus: Would you leave the porch light on for me? Would you leave the porch light on for me? Even though just a memory is all that I’ll be. Would you leave the porch light on for me? Even though just a memory is all that I'll be.... Would you leave the porch light on for me?
