Key: FF | Capo: 0fr |  Left-Handed 

    



Verse 1
F              Am
Watch my hand, see it shakes
Dm7                        A
Trembling as my life blood bleeds
F           Am
Comfortless super-fakes
Dm7                  A
Offering their empty creeds
     D/A              A
That have no faith or substance
     D/A                A
That change to suit the doubter
   D/A         A
To satisfy his needs
Chorus
D              Dbm
Rid me of your darkness
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
D                   Dbm
Clothe me with your brightness
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
D           Dbm
Oh, save me someone
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
Verse 2
F            Am
Growing boys masturbate
Dm7                         A
Drink the wine and take the bread
F               Am
Saintly priests castigate
Dm7                A
Holy water for the head
     D/A                A
With shades of John the Baptist
    D/A            A
Who came intent to rescue
    D/A                 A
And danced with death instead
Chorus
D            Dbm
Rid me of my darkness
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
D                   Dbm
Clothe me with your brightness
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
D           Dbm
Oh, save me someone
Bm                    A
Lay a little light on me
