All those metaphors you learn in high school
F7 A#
Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me

You can't see the stars if there's too much light

After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
C F
Baby I'm fine with the dark

I tossed my coin in to that wishing well
A Dm A# F

A Dm A# F
Black as the moonless woods of my unsung prayer

Black as the velvet Elvis of my repair
A Dm A# G
Black as the color of my true love's hair
