You say you have a best friend, you trust him with your life
     
You trust him with your money, you trust him with your kids

You'd even trust him with your wife

             Asus                             D
You better watch what's goin' on when the lights are out
                Asus                  G                   D
When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody lookin' around
        Asus                   G                     E   E* 
When the lights are out, down in this dirty little town

E  E*   E  E* 

E
Well now the world is dark and funny, better listen up to what I say

You ain't gonna know what's going on by what you see in the light of day


             Asus                             D
You better watch what's goin' on when the lights are out
                Asus                  G                   D
When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody lookin' around
            Asus                 G                      E   E* 
Yeah when the lights are out, down in this dirty little town 

E  E* E  E*


        Asus              E     Asus                   E
Now, Baby, she trusted Billy, within reason, you understand?
        Asus                       E
But he kept coming home late at night 
            N.C.*(tap guitar)                                     
And in the morning he had that smell on his hands 

E E* E E*


E
Well now the world is turning, Rome is burning
                               
Me, I'm watching and I'm learning

They say sure as God's hand and the tickin' of the clock

The lord's light will shine under every dirty rock 

Last night I slept the sleep of fear

And I heard God's voice whispering in my ear 


               Asus                             D
He said, you better watch what's goin' on when the lights are out
                Asus                  G                   D
When the night is dark, when there ain't nobody lookin' around
            Asus               G                       E
Yeah when the lights are out, down in this dirty little town

G                         E    
Down in this dirty little town 
G                         E    
Down in this dirty little town 
G                          E    E*                         
Down in this dirty little town
