(Verse)
E A#m,Dm/E A/E E
Carolina Moon, lazy old river, time keeps floatin on by
E A#m,Dm/E
Moss hangin from an old oak tree, baby it's just you and me
A/E E F#m/A
Sure makes one beautiful sight, we've got postcard views
C#m7 A/F#
Curled up in this rocking chair, feel like I ought to tip my hat
B
To the man upstairs for
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
Burnin the whole night through
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
So I can look at you
(Verse)
E A#m,Dm/E
Your pretty brown eyes, your legs that go on forever
A/E E
Still can't believe you're mine, come on baby let's take a walk
A#m,Dm/E
Follow the path down to that old dock
A/E E
And I'll bring that bottle of wine
F#m/A C#m7
That old moon's so bright just hangin up there
A/F# B
Feel like I ought to count my blessings and thank the man upstairs for
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
Burnin the whole night through
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
So I can look at you

F#m/A C#m7
It's getting kinda late girl, lets go back to the house
F#m/A
I want to watch you from my pillow
B
Till the morning rolls around so I'm
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
Burnin the whole night through
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
I, I'm, leavin the light on, leavin the light on
E
So I can, so I can see you, oh I wanna look at you
E A#m,Dm/E A/E
Oh, so I'm leavin the light on, leavin my light on
E
oh it's burnin, oh it's burnin through, oh it's burnin through
A#m, A/E
Yeah I'm leavin the light on, I'm leavin the light on
E A#m,Dm/E A/E E
so I can look at you
