Lyrics

The (Dm)se cond some one men tioned you were all a lone, I could feel the trou ble cours ing through your veins.

Now I know, hide,

it’s got a (C)hold.

Just a phone call left un an swered, had me spark ing up.

These ci ga rettes won’t stop me won d’ring where you are, don’t let (F)go,

keep a (C)hold.

If you look in to the dis tance, there’s a house up on the hill, guid ing like a light house to a place where you’ll be safe to feel at (F)grace ’cause we’ve all made mis takes.

If you’ve lost your way…

I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

And I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

Tell me what’s been hap p’ning, what’s been on your mind, late ly you’ve been search for a dark er place to hide,

that’s al (C)right.

But if you car ry on a bu sing, you’ll be robbed from us.

I re fuse to lose a noth er friend to drugs, just come (F)home,

don’t let (C)go.

If you look in to the dis tance, there’s a house up on the hill, guid ing like a light house to a place where you’ll be safe to feel at (F)grace ’cause we’ve all made mis takes.

If you’ve lost your way…

I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

And I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

Tell

If you look in to the dis tance, there’s a house up on the hill, guid ing like a light house to a place where you’ll be safe to feel at (F)grace and if you’ve lost your way.

If you’ve lost your way…

And I know you don’t know, oh, need you to be brave, hid from the truth ain’t gon na make this all o kay, I’ll see your (F)pain if you don’t feel our grace.

And way.

I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

I will leave the light on.

’Cause I will leave the light on.

Is the engraved accompaniment score for "Leave A Light On" suitable for a pianist?
Yes — both hands are notated in classic piano notation (treble + bass clefs, key G, real chord symbols), engraved server-side from the publisher MusicXML. A staff pianist or accompanist can read this directly from the screen or printed PDF and play the backing while you sing the melody.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "Leave A Light On" by Tom Walker in?
The backing track is in G at 140 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones — the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "Leave A Light On" with this accompaniment?
Yes — that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "Leave A Light On"?
Effectively yes — it's the piano-only backing for "Leave A Light On", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.

Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work — the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

Who wrote "Leave A Light On"?
"Leave A Light On" was originally performed by Tom Walker. This piano accompaniment is an arrangement of that song, designed for sing-along and play-along use.
What is this accompaniment Sheet Music view?
Same engraver-grade rendering as the standard Sheet Music mode — both hands, classic piano notation, key of G, real chord symbols — but the audio is the karaoke / backing-track arrangement of "Leave A Light On" with the lead melody removed. Perfect for singers, lead instruments, and ensemble practice.
Can I sing or play melody while the score follows along?
Yes. The backing track removes the melody so you can sing or play it on top while the chord changes and rhythm guide you. The engraved score scrolls in time with the audio so you never lose your place.
Is this the same notation a piano book would show?
Yes — treble + bass clefs, key signature, time signature, beams, dynamics, and chord symbols above the staff, all rendered from the original publisher MusicXML. Identical reading experience to a printed piano accompaniment book.
