O pen ing my eyes,

seems like it gets hard er some (D)times.

Look at the sky light.

Would you be (C)mad at me if I tried run ning a (D)way to it in the night?

I tried to (Em)fight,

but I’m not (C)strong e nough.

I just want you (D)here, but I al so want to be a lone.

I don’t (Em)know

what I want an y (D)more.

(D)Ev ’ry now and (Cmaj7)then,

the dark ness (G)tries to chase (D)me,

and my legs

are get ting (G)tired of run (D)ning.

Ooh,

please don’t,

please don’t let it get to me.

Oh,

I don’t

wan na give up that eas i ly,

but the dark ness keeps chas ing (G)me,

(G)me.

Hid ing plac es re mind me (C)of

you and I.

I wan na (Em)call you, but if I (C)hear your voice, I just might (D)cry.

And I don’t e ven (Em)know

what this song’s a bout (D)an y more.

And (D)I don’t (Em)know

what I want an y (D)more.

Ev ’ry now and dark ness keeps chas ing.

(Em)Riv er streams down my cheeks.

I look to my (C)right, see you blow ing smoke in your (D)ripped jeans.

Don’t (Em)tell me you fell in; the dark ness is (C)al read y seep ing through.

Oh, (D)can’t you see?

I will be (Em)dif f’rent,

but I’m not (C)sure if I can do it all a (D)lone.

God, I want to be (Em)dif f’rent,

’Cause ev ’ry now and (C)then,

to chase (D)me,

and my legs

are get ting (G)tired of run ning.

Oh, no, no, no, please (Cmaj7)don’t,

Oh,
