All those metaphors you learn in high school
B7 E
Dark and light is wrong and right it never made sense to me
B
Here's what I can see:
[Chorus]
F#
You can't see the stars if there's too much light
F#7
Ain't nothing like holding you in the middle of the night
E
After getting burned by the sun in a hard day's work
F# B
Baby I'm fine with the dark

I tossed my coin in to that wishing well

Black as the fear of endless possibilities
D# G#m E B
Black as the moonless woods of my unsung prayer
D# G#m E B
Black as the velvet Elvis of my repair
D# G#m E C#
Black as the color of my true love's hair
