"The Light" lyrics

Ooh, I been livin' life
But I can't keep livin' like this
Whiskey in the wine
Two lines I've crossed too many damn times
But when me and the devil get together
That's when the trouble starts
Oh, I'd've never found heaven if I wasn't walkin' in the dark

I saw the light in the neon
I met God in this bar too
This honky tonk that I lean on
Feels kinda like an old church pew
I know I shoulda been prayin'
Instead of chasin' them whiskey drinks all night
But I found myself at the wrong place at the right time
And I saw the light

That barstool spinnin', man, I really need the church pew
Courage that I'm shootin', livin' like I'm bulletproof
Leanin' on the neon 'stead've leanin' on my faith (Hey)
Demons are the reason I might see an early grave (Hey)
Brave enough, been swallowin', walkin' with my Father again
Hollow out a bottle just so I can sit and talk with Him
Reconcile, I'm sorry and, thank You for Your tolerance
Probably know how dark it's been until You started walkin' in

I saw the light in the neon
I met God in this bar too
This honky tonk that I lean on
Feels kinda like an old church pew
I know I shoulda been prayin'
Instead of chasin' them whiskey drinks all night
But I found myself at the wrong place at the right time
And I saw the light

I saw the light in the neon
I met God in this old bar too
This honky tonk that I lean on
It sure feels like an old church pew

I saw the light in the neon
I met God in this bar too
This honky tonk that I lean on
Feels kinda like an old church pew
I know I shoulda been prayin'
Instead of chasin' them whiskey drinks all night (Whiskey drinks all night)
But I found myself at the wrong place at the right time
And I saw the light

Aw yeah
I hope the good Lord can forgive me
For drinkin' all this whiskey
If I didn't I wouldn't be as close as I am right now
I saw the light
