Lights Off Lyrics

LIGHTS OFF - Jay Sean
Last Updated: July 30th 2010
Capo: 3
Chords:
Bm: 224432
G: 320033 or 355433 - I feel 355433 may be easier to switch to after Bm
D: x00233 or 557775
A: 002220 or 577655
Bm -> Dm: 557765 or 000231. 557765 preferred.
G -> Bb: 688766 or 113331 - Easier to transition from Dm to 688766.
D -> F: 133211 or 8-8-10-10-10-8
A -> C: 032010 or 335553 or 8-10-9-9-8-8
, , , are cues for the vocals. They should line up with the string+fret to play.
For example, for , it lines up with "2", so for the first line of the first verse,
play the A string (5th string) on 2nd fret, you sing "losing" (chorus) at the same time.
You can play the verses by finger-picking too, but you wouldn't want to play the whole song like
that, would you? It would sound too monotonous! Hence I made the verses/bridges chords, and the
finger-picking (you can actually hear that in the song).
If you want to play the verses by picking, then
Bm ->
G ->
D ->
A ->
Use the same cues as you use for the chorus.

lternate Intro
- I don't think this is actually easier, but it makes use of the bar
So for anyone that's curious..:
:
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired it's you that I'm missing it's
like my brain is wired up and there's a glitch in my system
You're like a drug and now my blood won't stop itching
I'm in critical condition someone let my out of this prison
Pre-horus
:
It's like my mind is playing tricks on me lately
I could've sworn that you were still my baby
I'm on a merry-go-round, going around, driving me crazy
That's why it feels like
horus
:
Losing you is like somebody, just turned all the lights off
Won't somebody, anybody, please just turn the lights on?
I won't take, one step, I can't see what's coming next
Losing you is like somebody, just turned all the lights off
Can't see at all (at all, at all, at all)
Can't see at all (oh no)
Can't see at all (at all), cause it's like somebody, just turned all the lights off
:
I don't understand how one minute I just had it all
Now I can't reach you cos I'm tied up with this straight jacket on
I can't breathe (breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe)
I can't see (see, see, see, see, see, see, see)
Repeat Pre-horus
Repeat horus

:
Used to see my world in color girl
When you left me it's like my world turned grey
Turn my winter into summer girl
why won't you help me turn night to day
I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think at all
Honestly it feels like I ain't living no more
D A (strum once)
Can't say no more, can't see no more
Baby that's why it feels like
Repeat horus
