-In The Dark-

G Am7
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo x4
G
We started looking for you
Am7
In the darker caves
G
We had a lot of love
Am
We thought would light the way
G
We saw the wrecks of buildings
Em
And ships that sank in starlight
G
We saw the ghosts of angels
Em C
That spoke of falls from tremendous heights
Am7
Don't you leave us in the dark...
G
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Am7
Don't you leave us in the dark...
G
Don't you leave us in the dark...
We saw your old flames
And some were burning yet
It made us smile to see
Just how well tended each was kept
But other fires were burning too
And I saw the battlefields
The dying Light Brigade
Stretched out upon the wheel
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo x4
Every heart is much the same
We tell ourselves down here
The same chambers fed by veins
The same maze of love and fear
We thought you were a saint
But the halo was an eye
It's hard to see how there could be
So much dark inside the light
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
Don't you leave us in the dark...
