The Dark

D

[Verse]

D
All our sweetest sins,

Carry them 'til our ends,
          G
They made you,
              D
and they made me.
D
They say the dark will grow,
                             G
In my eyes, across our skies, a road-
D
Yeah a road.

[Chorus]

Bm G D x2
Ooooooh

[Verse]

D
The apple tree that we grew,

Blew over, died last June,
             G
When the hurricane,
                 D
Came barrelling through.


And grandpa can't sit up straight
                                 G
He's lying down to rest his weary heart
          D
While I must pray

[Chorus]

Bm G D x2
Ooooooh

[Bridge]

A
I know you're running scared
                   Bm
But you ain't going nowhere
           G
Don't you dare

A
I know you're running scared
                   Bm
But you ain't going nowhere,
          G
Don't you dare.
          D
Don't you dare.

[Verse]

D
And hidden under Papa's bed,
                                         G
The pistol my brother pressed to my head singing,
          D
Trust in me.

D
'Cause this holy house is a home,

The dead don't rest, They rise in our chest
         G
And our sins,
         D
Live unatoned.
