[Verse 1]
F#
All those metaphors you learn in high school
F#7 B
Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me
F#
Here's what I can see:
[Chorus]
C#
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
C#7
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
B
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
C# F#
Baby I'm fine with the dark

Ain't nothing like a blackout in New York City

[Verse 3]
A# D#m B F#
I tossed my coin in to that wishing well
A# D#m B F#
and jumped right in after it as far as I could tell
A# D#m B F#
That great void was full of infinity
D#m B F#
Black as the fear of endless possibilities
A# D#m B F#
Black as the moonless woods of my unsung prayer
A# D#m B F#
Black as the velvet Elvis of my repair
A# D#m B G#
Black as the color of my true love's hair
