Follow the Lights is an EP by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals released October 23, 2007 in the U.S.. The EP contains three new songs and four live studio recordings, including a cover of "Down in a Hole" by Alice in Chains.[1]

The EP features the first official recording of the song "Blue Hotel" by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals. The song originally appeared on Willie Nelson's "Songbird" album. "This Is It" was previously recorded for Rock n Roll, "If I Am a Stranger" for Cold Roses, and "Dear John" – which was co-written by Ryan Adams and Norah Jones – for Jacksonville City Nights.

Follow the Lights debuted at number 40 on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling about 19,000 copies in its first week.[2]

In the UK, Follow the Lights was released as Everybody Knows, with the titular "Everybody Knows" from Easy Tiger included as an extra track. In Germany, the EP is not available individually, but was added as a bonus disc to a limited edition reissue of Easy Tiger.
