Intro 
G*   Em*  C*   G*   C*   Em* 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh 
G*   Em*  C*   G*   C*   Em* 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh 

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 

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