E5                 C5
When I hold out my hand
G5                D5                   E5
All I feel is the wind from the stormy sea
                C5
I call out your name
G5               D5                   C5
All I hear is my voice but still I'll be
             E5
Keeping the light on
C5           E5
Keeping the light on
C5                   E5
I'll be keeping the light on
D5              E5  C5  G5  D5 
All night long

Em                     C
Are you afraid of the dark
G/B             D                  Em
Afraid of what might be around the bend
                 C
Of missing your mark
G/B            D              C
But here is a message I will send
                 Em
I'm keeping the light on
C                Em
I'm keeping the light on
C                    Em
I'll be keeping the light on
D
All night long
Am       Em                 Bm     C
Some say you will never get home again
Am       Em                       Bm       C 
Some say that you'll be walking alone my friend

Solo: Em  C  G/B  D  Em  C  G/B  D

Em              C
I don't ask for much
G/B                    D                   Em
But everyone needs a place that they call home
Em                  C
And I do miss your touch
G/B               D                 C
And I picture you out there on your own
                 Em
I'm keeping the light on
C                    Em
I'll be keeping the light on
C                Em
I'm keeping the light on

All night long

Am       Em                 Bm     C
Some say you will never get home again
Am       Em                       Bm       C 
Some say that you'll be walking alone my friend
