Great song, great songwriter, just though Id post my version because it may be  
more like what he plays on the record.

(Repeat verse chord pattern above for all verses) 
	 
Im not afraid of the dark when the sun goes down 
and your dreams grow teeth and the beasts come out 
and cast their long shadows every time they start 
Ill be right here with you Im not afraid of the dark  

G 
out on the hills there hounds a bear 
D 
out on the moore the foxes run 
G 
just stay alight until the light has faded  
       A 
then pray for light that seems so long to come  

G   D   G   D   G   D  A  A    x 2 
Im not afraid of the dark so if the stars get scared 
and you reach for him and honey hes not there  
just a long shadow across your heart  
you can reach for me Im not afraid of the dark 

Im not afraid of the dark when the sun goes down 
and the dreams grow teeth and the beasts come out 
and cast their long shadows every time they stalk 
you can reach for me Im not afraid of the dark
