[Intro] E
E A E
Shadows are falling and I've been here all day
A E
It's too hot to sleep and time is running away
B B/A G#m F# E
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
C#m B A E
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
B B/A G#m F# E
There's not even room enough to be anywhere
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
E A E
Well my sense of humanity is going down the drain
E A E
Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain
B B/A G#m F# E
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
C#m B A E
She put down in writin' what was in her mind
B B/A G#m F#m E
I just don't see why I should even care
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
E A E
Well I been to London and I been to gay Paris
E A E
I followed the river and I got to the sea
B B/A G#m F#
I've been down to the bottom of a world full of lies
C#m B A E
I ain't lookin for nothin' in anyone's eyes
B B/A G#m F# E
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
E A E
I was born here and I'll die here, against my will
E A E
I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
B B/A G#m F# E
Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
C#m B A E
I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
B B/A G#m F# E
Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
C#m B A E
