NOTE - I'm posting two different ways to play this. All down to personal
preference on which one you think sounds nicer. Let me know what you all think :)


1] STANDARD TUNING


Intro - Strum Em

Em D
All these broken pieces left unglued,
Em
Should never find their way,
D
Into the hands of someone like you.


Em
I'm in the dark,
C D
I'm alone around you.
A Em
I've never been here before,
C D
Nobody here to get me through.
A Em
Oh I'm in the dark.


Strum Em


Em D
Every minute shared is never mine,
Em
Frozen in this fog and hiding,
D
Every second in time.


Em
I'm in the dark,
C D
I'm alone around you.
A Em
I've never been here before,
C D
Nobody here to get me through.


A Em C
Oh I'm losing my faith in every way,
D
That points to you.
A Em
Oh I'm in the dark,
C D
I'm alone around you.
A C
Oh I'm in the dark.


G D
The more bleak the day,
A C
The less I behave as if,
Em D C
Everything black can wash away.


G D A C
Or can I just trade a dream for a way,
Em D Em C D A Em C Dm
To peel back the shade behind the gray?



Em
I'm in the dark,
C D
I'm alone around you.
A Em
I've never been here before,
C D
Nobody here to get me through.
A Em
Oh I'm in the dark,


Outro - Strum Em
