[Intro] G* Em* C* G* C* Em* G* Em* C* G* C* Em* [Verse 1]
        Em       C
Opening my eyes

                              D
Seems like it gets harder sometimes

            Em
Look at the skylight

             C                             D
Would you be mad at me if I tried running away to it in the night?

     Em
I tried to fight

            C
But I'm not strong enough

                 D
I just want you here
But I also wanna be alone
        Em  C               D
I don't know what I want anymore
[Chorus]
              Em
Every now and then

                     C      D
The darkness tries to chase me

       Em               C            D
And my legs are getting tired of running

           Em
Oh, please don't

       C                   D
Please don't let it get to me

      Em          C                D
Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily

                               G* Em* C* G* C* Em*
But the darkness keeps chasing me

G* Em* C* G* C* Em*
Me
[Verse 2]
       Em                C         D
Hiding places remind me of you and I

        Em
I wanna call you

         C
But if I hear your voice

             D
I just might cry

                 Em  C                       D
And I don't even know what the song's about, anymore

            Em  C                D
And I don't know what I want, anymore
[Chorus]
              Em
Every now and then

    C                 D
The darkness tries to chase me

       Em               C        D
And my legs are getting tired of running

           Em
Oh, please don't

       C                   D
Please don't let it get to me

      Em          C                D
Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily
But the darkness keeps chasing [Bridge]
Em
River streams down my cheeks

               C
And look to my right

                             D
See you blowing smoke in your ripped jeans

      Em
Don't tell me you fell in

    C
The darkness is already seeping through

   D
Oh, can't you see?

          Em
I will be different

            C                         D
But I'm not sure if I can do it all alone

                  Em
God, I want to be different

            C                    D
But I'm not sure if I can do it on my own
[Chorus]
       Em
'Cause every now and then

    C                 D
The darkness tries to chase me

       Em               C           D
And my legs are getting tired of running

                       Em
No, no, no, no, please don't

       C                  D
Please don't let it get to me

      Em          C                D
Oh, I don't wanna give up that easily

                               G* Em* C* G* C* Em*
But the darkness keeps chasing me

G* Em* C* G* C* Em*
