[Verse 1]
 Am9    Em7
 In the darkest place

F2      Dm9
 I know  that is where you'll find me

 F2          Dm9
 Even though     you didn't have to remind me

 Dm9
 I shut out the lights

      Dm7     G/D   Dm9         Dm11  Dm9     G/D   Cmaj7    G/B
 Your eyes ad-just, they'll nev-er be the   same

 You know I love you so, lets start a-gain

 Am9       Em7
 Since you put me down

F2       Dm9
 It seems  I've been very gloomy

 F2            Dm9
 You may laugh,    but pretty girls look right through me

 Dm9                           Dm7    G/D
 They don't sense the faintest glimmering

 Dm9     Dm11      Dm9    G/D    Cmaj7    G/B
 That is the torch I    bear

         Dm9                Dm7 G/D     Em7/A
 There's light enough for me to find my way

 But I only have to tell myself that by

 Am(maj7)
 Now you could be with someone else

Fmaj7/A                               Em7/G
 Is there light beneath your door and laughter from within?

 Dm9                    G/B
 Do your friends come a-round saying

Dm9              G/D
 "Try to find an-other lover"?

 He won't love you like I       do
[Verse 3]
 Am9    Em7
 In the darkest place

 Maybe you'll understand I must shut out the light

      Dm7     G/D   Dm9         Dm11  Dm9     G/D   Cmaj7    G/B
