[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
          D7add13
Oh Randy, leave  it up to me
G                           C
 I'll pour the water if you bring the tree
                       D7add13
Nothing looks that real       to me
  G                     C
I only see two or three colors
                         D7add13
What's it like to breathe       in?
G                     C
 Find a friend and gather within
Em                D/F#    G
  I'm a wolf in a city of women
    C
You only know the light is on

[Verse 2]
C                      D7add13
 Will you plant that sycamore, baby?
G                            C
 I'll watch it grow from the second floor
                        D7add13
I haven't left the house       much lately
    G                          C
And you don't come around here anymore
                             D7add13
And all those lovers in their       velvet gowns
G                    C
 I want to take that trip uptown
Em                     D/F#      G
  Will you tell him to let me out
     C
When you can see the light is on?

[Verse 3]
Cmaj7
                     D7add13
I found a horse hair in     my food
G                      C
 And there's a raccoon in my room
                    D7add13
There are blue jays all    in bloom
G                    C
All along the cement floor
                     Dadd11
Randy, they say I've gone  insane
   G                                C
So could you take me dancing in the pouring rain?
Em
  You don't know me,
             D/F#    G
but you know my  name
         C
Will you say it 'til the light is gone?
