Somebody Turned On The Light

By:  Hoyt Axton [1]
Performed: Arlo Guthrie
G C G C G
I've been to wild Montana, I went there in a storm
C Bb F C
My boots were Texas leather, mm, My Levis wet and torn
 
G C G G C
I loved it in Montana, I loved it in the storm
G C Bb F C
I think I'm gonna cross that river, mm, I just might be reborn
 
 
C Bb F C F C
New York, New York, winter, sixty-one, taking me a city ride
Bb F G C
Somebody tall must of put out the light, cause it got real dark outside
 
G C Bb
And I never saw the sun until seventy-one
C F C F C
But I never gave up the fight
Bb
And I sure was glad when I saw the dawn
F
And somebody turned on the light
tacet C F C F C
Somebody turned on the light
 
Dm F C F
Women, wine, and fast red cars, well, I couldn't see to read the signs
C Bb F G C G
Somebody said, "Whose life is this?" I said that it can't be mine
 
 
F C G C G Eb Ab Eb Bb F Bb F C
 
C Bb F C F
When the world is wrong, you'd better right yourself, it'll make the dark clouds fly
C Bb F G C
Nobody tall can put out the light, Just don't let the spirit die
 
G C Bb
If you never see the sun till ninety-one,
C C F
Don't-cha never give up the fight
C Bb
Sure be glad when you see the dawn,
F
And somebody turns on the light
C F C F C
Somebody turns on the light
