Life is n’t eas y from the sin gu lar side.
Down in the hole some e mo tions are hard (D)to hide.
It’s your de ci sion; it’s a chance that you take.
It’s on your head; it’s a hab it that’s hard (D)to break.
Do you (D)need a friend?
(G5)Would you (D)tell no lies?
(G5)Would you (D)take me in?
(G5)Are you (D)lone ly in (G5)the dark?
(D)In the dark,
(D)in the (Em)dark,
(D)in the dark.
You nev er lis ten to the voic es in side;
they fill your ears as you run to a place (D)to hide.
You’re nev er sure if the il lu sion is real.
You pinch your self but the mem ’ries are all (D)you feel.
Can you (D)break a way (G5)from your (D)al i bis?
(G5)Can you (D)make a play?
(G5)Will you (D)meet me in (G5)the dark?
(D)In the dark,
(D)in the (Em)dark,
(D)in the dark.
(D)in the dark,
(D)in the dark,
in the (Hah, hah, hah, hah.)
Don’t you need me?
Hey, hey.
Don’t you need me?
Oh, yeah.
Don’t you need me?
Hey, hey.
Don’t you need me?
Oh, yeah.
(D)in the (Em)dark,
(D)in the dark,
(D)in the dark,
in the (Hah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah, hah,) hah, hah, hah, hah,)
