Biography:
Bob Schneider (born October 12, 1965) is an American musician based in Austin, TX. He is the former lead-singer of Ugly Americans.
For nearly ten years, Schneider has performed a Monday night residency at the Saxon Pub, an intimate and legendary venue on South Lamar, Austin, Texas.

Let the light in - Bob Schneider
Lyrics transcribed by Chandler
Standard tuning (EADGBe)
No Capo
Intro: C, F x2
C
Wicked witch of Cincinnati, pulled out her old broom
F
Dusted off the spiders and cobwebs and used it
Dm
To fly on down to Cleveland for the weekend
G
'Cause she thought it would be time to do some freakin'
C
And it'd been so long since she didn't feel
F
bad not spending all her time making people feel
C
sad no more now she's made up her mind
F
put on that old dress and get herself looking real
Dm
fine all up in the club drinking Hennessey
G
Oh my what a mess, I must confess that....
Chords:
C
Its alright to let your hair down
F
Let your heart out
Dm
Let the light in, let the light in
G
It's alright, let the light in, let the light in again
(C, F x2)
Verse 2:
C
Well the lion and the tin man showed up at the spot
F
The wicked witch walked in, said, "Show me what you got"
Dm
The lion ran for cover and the tin man didn't move
G
that’s when the band started playing this groove and...
C
The next thing you know there was magic in the air
F
No one saw it coming, it wasn't too clear
Dm
And the tin man said, "I don't know how to
G
do this baby. Maybe you could show me how. She said…
Chorus
Verse 3:
C
They danced in the darkness on the floor
F
The world kept spinning round like it's always done before
Dm
The people in the club said they don't a pretty pair
G
But the tin man and the witch, they didn't care
C
No, 'cause love don't give a damn about what other people say
F
It does what it wants; it's always been that way
Dm
That's the way it was, the way it will be again
G
Forever and ever and ever, amen...
