[Intro]
D Bm G
D Bm G
[Verse 1]
D
Once you eyes they shone like flashlights,
Bm
Fountains of clarity
G
And the most alkaline of batteries, were you and me
D A G
Free of failure, flicker or fade
D
Yeah, but depending where you're from too much daylight
Bm
Can seem like an oddity
G
And devotion is a commodity, so with you it seems
D A G
It only comes in trade
D A G A
Oh, but the first time the bill isn't paid, it's too late...
[Chorus]
D
So you just live on in the dark
Bm G
You could drive but you just park
D
You just talk when you could sing
Bm G
And now it doesn't mean a thing
A
You could bite, but you just bark
G A
You could light but you just spark
D Bm G
You live on in the dark
[Verse 2]
D
Rolling papers, bottles and needles,
Bm
and people we trusted
G
Our eyes just become too adjusted, we'd be busted
D A G
If sightlessness were a crime
D
So now I guess I should be searching for matches
Bm
But I don't see what's the use
G
Engines run 'till they're out of juice, and I can't even produce
D A G
Fuel enough to light your face
D A G A
And that's a light I will never replace in time
[Chorus]
D
So I just live on in the dark
Bm G
I could drive but I just park
D
I just talk when you could sing
Bm G
And now it doesn't mean a thing
A
I could bite, but I just bark
G A
I could light but I just spark
D
I live on in the dark
[Guitar solo]
D Bm D Bm G A G A G A
[Refrain]
F#m G
It's as if we've only ever come together
D
just to test each other's mettle
F#m G
Or to justify subsistence or bolster our resistance to the
E
idea that we should struggle
A
When we could just settle
[Verse 3]
D
So you just get numb to every itch
Bm Bm7
And there's no feeling in your fingertips
G
And you can't find the switch
D A G
And we've grown much too tired to grope
D A G A
Yeah, we lost all our fire to cope a long time ago
[Chorus]
D
So we just live on in the dark
Bm G
We could drive but we just park
D
We just talk when we could sing
Bm G
And now it doesn't mean a thing
A
We could bite, but we just bark
G A
We could light but we just spark
F#m
We live on in the dark
