Ron Pope – Porch Light
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse
Am G
The river that runs through my hometown used to freeze over in the winter
Fmaj7 C
We'd go down to the water’s edge with a jug of red wine
Am G
And the girl I loved most of my life she'd take my hand and with a smile
Fmaj7 C
We'd walk across the water to pass the time
Prechorus
Am Fmaj7 C G
Her mother would pray with the porch light on so she could find her way
Chorus
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
She said "If you don't believe then how can you make it through
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If there's nothing but lies then how will my children learn to tell the truth
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If you don't believe darling what can you do
Am Fmaj7 C C
Cause if nothing really matters then what's the use"
Verse
Am G
About five days after I turned 16 she grabbed my face and swore to me
Fmaj7 C
This town will crush the life from all my dreams
Am G
So she stole the keys to her daddy's car and with fear in her eyes, she begged for my arms
Fmaj7 C
but no matter what she said I wasn't ready to leave
Prechorus
Am Fmaj7 C G
And her father would wait with the porch light on till she could find her way
Chorus
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
And he'd said "If you don't believe then how can you make it through
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If there's nothing but lies then how will your children learn to tell the truth
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If you don't believe darling what can you do
Am Fmaj7 C C
Cause if nothing really matters then what's the use"
Bridge
Am G
And the place they say I got my eyes is from a broken man who never smiled
Fmaj7 C
In pictures he wouldn't know me on the street
Am G
Now you can cross your heart a thousand times but most nights I'm left here wondering why
Fmaj7 C
I ever loved someone who's so afraid of me
Prechorus
Am Fmaj7 C G
I'd sit and I'd wait for the porch light on till she comes back to me
Chorus
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
And I'd say, "If you don't believe than how can we make it through
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If there's nothing but lies then how will our children learn to tell the truth
Am Fmaj7 C G – G11 – G6
If you don't believe darling what can we do
Am Fmaj7 C G
Cause if nothing really matters” I said, “if nothing really matters, oh love,
Am Fmaj7 C C
If nothing really matters, then what's the use?"
Am Fmaj7 C G
Ohhhhh
