[Verse 1]
D
All those metaphors you learn in high school
D7 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
A7
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

F# Bm G D
I tossed my coin in to that wishing well
F# Bm G D

Black as the fear of endless possibilities
F# Bm G D
Black as the moonless woods of my unsung prayer

Black as the velvet Elvis of my repair
F# Bm G E
Black as the color of my true love's hair
