[Verse 1]
Am7                  Fmaj7
Keep your eyes down, keep your head lowered.

Dm7                     Am7
Keep to yourself, dear, do not tell a soul.

Am7                  Fmaj7
You know it's wrong, what they've been sayin'

    Dm7                     Am7
and you knew all along that I would have to go.

       F           G/F   F              G/F
Find a place where light shines on my reflection,

  Am          G/A   Am             G/A
a place where I can stand up on my own,

    F                           Cadd9
not down on my knees. Until then, please
[Chorus]
                F                     C
Meet me in the dark, meet me in the shadows

                  F                      C
Past the old graveyard down Eisenhower Road.

                  F                         C
Meet me where the storms blow out on their own, dear.

               Am    F             C
Meet me in the dark, never let me go.
[Verse 2]
Am7                 Fmaj7
I know everyone has their unspoken fear,

   Dm7                        Am7
it eats away their senses and their humanity.

     Am7                           Fmaj7
They carry all their secrets every night down to the river

         Dm7                             Am7
and they try so hard to drown them, they won't do that to me.

           F       G/F   F             G/F
'Cause I'm working hard, saving all my money

        Am           G/A            Am               G/A
and the tips in this jar will buy a brand new set of wings

    F                     Cadd9
for my Mercury. Until then, please
[Chorus]
                F                     C
Meet me in the dark, meet me in the shadows

                  F                    C
Past the old graveyard on Eisenhower Road.

                  F                         C
Meet me where the storms blow out on their own, dear.

                Am      F             C
Meet me in the dark and never let me go.
[Bridge]
Dm7                     C/E
I could never hide this little light of mine.

     Bb                                Am
If God made a mistake, then I should die before I wake.

Dm7                   C/E
Maybe it's my fate to swim against this tide,

Bb
Swallowing my pride.
[Verse 3]
Am7                  F
Keep your eyes down, say that you don't know me,

    Dm7                    Am7
For I could not survive if they took you away.

        Am      F                     C
Meet me in the dark, meet me in the shadows

                  F                       C
Past the old graveyard down Eisenhower Road.

                  F                         C
Meet me where the storms blow out on their own, dear.

                F     C
Meet me in the dark.

                F     C
Meet me in the dark.

Meet me in the dar-ark.
