In The Dark
Words & Music by Lil Green
Recorded by Mary Steenburgen in the movie "The Butcher's Wife," 1991
Previously recorded by Nina Simone, 1966
E7/9 A6 E7/9 A6 A A9
In the dark, it's just you and I;
A7/9 D9 D6 Dm7 Dm6
Not a sound, there's not one sigh,
A C#m7-5 Cdim(IV) Cdim E A F#m F7 E7
Just the beat of my poor heart in the dark.
E7/9 A6 E7/9 A6 A A9
In the dark, in the dark, I get such a thrill
A7/9 D9 D6 Dm(V) Dm7 Dm6
When he presses his fingertips upon my lips,
A C#m7-5 Cdim(IV) Cdim E A D9 A A7
And he begs me to please keep still in the dark.
Bridge
D9 D9 alt Dm Dm7 A
But soon, this dance will be endin'
F Bb9 A A7
And you're gonna be missed
D9 D9 alt Dm Dm7
Gee, I'm not pretendin'
A F#m F Bb9 E7
'Cause I swear it's fun, fun to be kissed.
E7/9 A6 E7/9 A6 A A9
In the dark, now we will find
A7/9 D9 D6 Dm7 Dm6
What the rest have left behind;
A AM7 F#7 D9 F E7
Just let them dance -- we're gonna find ro-mance,
E A F#m F E7 A
In the dark . . . in the dark.
