[Verse 1]
G
All those metaphors you learn in high school
G7 C
Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me
G
Here's what I can see:
[Chorus]
D
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
D7
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
C
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
D G
Baby I'm fine with the dark

B Em C G
I tossed my coin in to that wishing well
B Em C G

That great void was full of infinity
Em C G
Black as the fear of endless possibilities
B Em C G
Black as the moonless woods of my unsung prayer
B Em C G
Black as the velvet Elvis of my repair
B Em C A
Black as the color of my true love's hair
