[Verse 1]
D#
All those metaphors you learn in high school
D#7 G#
Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me
D#
Here's what I can see:
[Chorus]
A#
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
A#7
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
G#
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
A# D#
Baby I'm fine with the dark
| G# | D# | G# |
[Verse 2]
D#
Ain't nothing like a blackout in New York City
D#7
All those lights just get tired of looking pretty
G# D#
I'm walking down Broadway here's what I can say:
[Chorus]
A#
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
A#
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
G#
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
A# G
Baby I'm fine with the dark

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

See in the end if you lived right I don't know about that

But I know what I need
[Chorus]
