[Intro] G D G D G D A A E [Verse 1]
          G             D               G      D
I'm not afraid of the dark we've been here before

           G           D            A
fallen on hard times honey, we've fallen on swords

      G       D          G           D
If a long shadow falls across your heart

          G          D                  A            D
I'll be right here with you I'm not afraid of the dark
[Verse 2]
          G             D            G         D
I'm not afraid of the dark when the sun goes down

          G           D             A
and the dreams grow teeth and the beasts come out

                G       D          G          D
and cast their long shadows every time they start

          G          D                  A            D
I'll be right here with you I'm not afraid of the dark
[Chorus]
G
out on the hills, the hounds are bayin'

D
out on the moor the foxes run

G
To stay alive until the light has faded

       A
then pray for light that seems so long to come
[Instrumental] G D G D G D A A x2 [Verse 3]
          G             D               G         D
I'm not afraid of the dark so if the stars get scarce

         G         D             A
and you reach for him and honey he's not there

        G       D    G           D
just a long shadow across your heart

          G        D             A            D
you can reach for me I'm not afraid of the dark
[Verse 4]
          G             D            G         D
I'm not afraid of the dark when the sun goes down

          G           D             A
and the dreams grow teeth and the beasts come out

                G       D          G          D
and cast their long shadows every time they start

          G        D             A
you can reach for me I'm not afraid of the dark
