Intro

E C A (Repeat riff throughout song except bridge – go to D)

I got a history in this town,

I think that I should move,

There’s nothing round here that I haven’t done,

And I’ve got nothing here left to prove,

There’s nowhere round here that I haven’t been in more ways than one,

I got a history in this town,

Now I think I’m done and I say:

(Chorus)

Hotel, Motel, Trust-House, Forty,

You make me feel nice, you make me feel naughty,

You make me wanna keep the lights on,

You make me wanna keep the lights on.

I got a history in this town,

I think that I should go,

Everyone just sees me around,

And there’s no-one here that I don’t know,

There’s nothing, no-one, nowhere round here that doesn’t leave me feeling blue,

I got a history in this town,

And a future somewhere else with you and I say:

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Such a little girl, the best I’ve ever seen,

Oh won’t you come and be my illuminated dream.

I want you like a power station,

I want you like a power station,

I want you about a power station’s worth of illumination and I say:

(Chorus)

You make me wanna keep the lights on (repeat)
