D G Just like water, it runs right through our fingers, D A D The flavor of it lingers like a rich red wine. A D In those days we were single, we lived them one by one. A G A Now we hardly see 'em, they don't walk, they run. [Chorus] D G But I've got plenty left I've set my sight on, D A D Don't wait up, leave the light on, I'll be home soon. [Turnaround] D G D A D [Verse 2] D G I've never seen my life in such a hurry, D A But if I start to worry, I get left behind. D G It's just a party, but you don't get invitations, D A D And there's just one destination, you better be on time. A D For years we rhymed in couplets, and we sang 'em two by two. A G A Now we hardly rhyme at all but here's a few: [Chorus] D G And if they hurt there's bullets left to bite on, D A D Don't wait up, leave the light on, I'll be home soon. [Turnaround] D G D A D [Verse 3] D G That drummer in my head needs inspiration, D A There's a lack of syncopation, and it holds me to a line. D G It's just so hard to leave these cages that we think in, D A D By stages we just sink in, to a slow decline. A D For years we lived in waltz time, we danced it three by three. A G A Now it's hard to dance but if you stick with me... [Chorus] D G We've got what we need to spend the night on, D A D Don't wait up, leave the light on, I'll be home soon. [Solo] D G D A D/A A D G D A D [Verse 4] D G These races that we've run were not for glory, D A No moral to the story, we run for peace of mind. D G But the race we're running now is neverending, D A D Space and time are bending, and there's no finish line. A D I will live to be a hundred, I was born in forty-four, A G A Thirty-three to go but I ain't keepin' score. [Chorus] D G I've been left for dead before but I still fight on, D A D Don't wait up, leave the light on, I'll be home soon. D G 'Cause I've been left for dead before but I still fight on, D A D Don't wait up, leave the light on, I'll be home soon.
