[Am] [Em] [Am]
[Em] [Am] [Dm]
[G]
[C] In the [Em] darkest place [F] I [C] know [F] that is where you'll find me
Even though [Dm] you didn't have to remind me I shut out the lights
Your [Bm] eyes would just [Dm] be the [G] same
[C] [G] [Dm] You know I love you so [G] let's start again
[C] Since you [G] put me down
[F] It seems [Dm] I've been [Am] very good
[F] You made life, [Dm]
[Am] your dirty clothes look right through [Dm] me
They don't sense the pain, just [G] glimmering
[Dm] It's the torch [G] I bear
[C] [G] [Dm] There's light enough for me [G] to find
[D] [E]
[Am] [Em] But I only had to tell myself and [E] find out you could be with someone [F] else
It's the light beneath your door and [G] laughter from within
[Dm] New friends come [G] around [Dm] saying
Try to find [G] another lover
[Dm] He won't love you [Bm] like I do
[Bb] In
[Dm] [Am] the [Em] darkest place [F] I'm lost
I have abandoned every hope
[Dm]
Maybe you'll understand I must shut out the lights
Your [G] eyes would just, [Dm] they'll never be [G] the same
[C] [G] [Dm] You know I love you so [G] let's start again
[A] [Dm] New friends [G] come around [Dm] saying
Try to find [G] another lover
[Dm] He won't love you [Bm] like I [Bb] do
[Eb] [Gm] [A] In the [E] darkest [D]
place
That [A]
is [E] where [D] you'll find me
[Bm] [A]
In the [E] darkest [D]
place
[A] That is [E] where [D] you'll find me
