"SHUT OUT THE LIGHT"
by Bruce Springsteen
Milwaukee 08/07/05 pump organ version 
         D
Well the runway rushed up at him
        G
And he felt the wheels touch down
    D
He stood out on the blacktop
           A
And took a taxi into town
    D
He got out down on main street
         G
and went into a local bar
    D                      
He bought a drink and he found a seat
      A            
In a corner in the dark.
      D
She called up her momma
           G
To get the kids out of the house
     D
She checked herself out in the dining room mirror
                   A
and undid an extra button on her blouse
    D
He felt her lying next to him
          G
When the clock read four a.m
       D              A
he was starin' at the ceiling
                  D
couldn't move his hands...

 G                        D
Momma, momma, momma come quick
  G                                D
I got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick
         G
Put your arms around me in the cold dark night
 D                       A            D
Hey now momma won't you shut out the light
           G
won't you shut out the light
           D
won't you shut out the light
           G
won't you shut out the light
           A           D
won't you shut out the light

       D
0n his porch they stretched a banner
        G                  D 
saying "Johnny, Welcome Home"

Poppa pulled his ford out of the garage
          A
and they polished up the chrome
    D 
His momma said "Johnny oh Johnny
               G
I'm so glad to have you back with me"
D                            
Poppa said he's sure they'd give him his job back
A                 D
down at the factory

G                        D
Momma, momma, momma come quick
  G                                D
I got the shakes and I'm gonna be sick
         G
Put your arms around me in the cold dark night

     D
Now deep in the dark forest,
   G
a forest filled with pain,
   D
beyond a strip of maryland pines
          A
there's a river without a name
        D
In the cold grey morning
     G
Mel Johnson he here stands
     D              
He stares out at the lights of the city
     A                   D
and dreams of where he's been
