[Chorus]
Am                 Dm
One door closes, another opens
  G               C   G
So I stay hoping, 3 2 1
Am         Dm
1 2 3, it's plain to see
               G
That bad things come in 3
              C          G
So leave the porch light on okay

[Verse 1]
Am
  3:30 sealed my fate
Dm
  Don't know if it's early or late
G
  Should I text you or wait?
G
  Either way kinda strange

[Pre-Chorus 1]
 Am
I thought you were the sun till it got dark
Dm
Melted my wings and now here comes the hard part
G                                      G
  I'm lonely enough on my own I don't need you adding to it

[Chorus]
Am                 Dm
One door closes, another opens
  G               C   G
So I stay hoping, 3 2 1
Am         Dm
1 2 3, it's plain to see
               G
That bad things come in 3
              C          G
So leave the porch light on okay

[Verse 2]
Am
  Your headlights in the dark
Dm
  Can't shine as bright as the stars
G
  Who did I think we are?
G
  An empty tank won't get you far and

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Am                                          Dm
  You talk 'bout yourself like you're all that
                                 G
And frankly I don't need all of that
                                     G
I'm lonely enough on my own I don't need you adding to it

[Chorus]
Am                 Dm
One door closes, another opens
  G               C   G
So I stay hoping, 3 2 1
Am         Dm
1 2 3, it's plain to see
               G
That bad things come in 3
              C          G
So leave the porch light on okay

[Bridge]
Am
  I leave my window open
Dm
  I keep my options open
G
  The bonfire you lit is smoking
G
  And 3 sets of lungs are choking
Am
  Extrovert in the moment
Dm
  Maybe the message is loading
G
  I hope you know that I'm joking
E
  My optimism is showing

[Break]
Am  Dm  G  E
Am  Dm  G  E

[Chorus]
Am                Dm
One door closes, another opens
  G               C   G
So I stay hoping, 3 2 1
Am         Dm
1 2 3, it's plain to see
               G
That bad things come in 3
              E            Am Dm G E
So leave the porch light on

[Break]
Am Dm G E

[Outro]
Am                    Dm
  Extrovert in the moment
G                            E
  Maybe the message is loading
Am                             Dm
  I hope you know that I'm joking
G                    E      Am
  My optimism is showing
