C[VerFse 1G]Am  G  
Go aChead and exhaust your disFtractions
Drink Gdeep from the dying wellAm  G  
Cash Cin your hope for resigFnation
GGo make your heaven of AmhellG  
When the Cwind has escaped from your Fsails
GAfter the afterglowAm  G  
When Cthere is no choice but to Ffail
GInto the darkness, Aminto the Gdarkness you’ll D/F#go
FInto the Gdarkness you’ll Cgo
[Instrumental]
C[VerFse 2G]Am  G  
Go Clive your best life full of Fvirtue
Wage Gwar on your only soulAm  G  
CDon’t let the smallest thing Fhurt you
Or take Gaway your hard-earned conAmtrolG  
When Cevery good boy isn’t Ffine
And toGgether the wheat and chaff AmgroGw
When Choliness loses its Fshine
GInto the darkness, Aminto the Gdarkness you’ll D/F#go
FInto the Gdarkness you’ll Cgo

Go Cset out to make the world Fpretty
ReGdeem it with story and AmsongG  
Say youC’ll recognize truth for its Fbeauty
And Gbeauty will right every AmwronGg
When Cdeath comes to deal its level Fworst
And Gall the fair things decoAmmposGe
CMaking a mockery of your Fthirst
GInto the darkness, Aminto the Gdarkness you’ll D/F#go
FInto the Gdarkness you’ll Cgo
[Instrumental]
C[VerFse 4G]Am  G  
Go Cdedicate yourself to the Friddle
Let Gnothing go unperceiAmvedG  
CMake every mystery Flittle
GBe the last one to belAmieveG  
When the Cworld makes more than just Fsense
And it’s Gnot enough merely to AmknowG  
When the Ctruth has confounded your Fdearest defense
GInto the darkness, Aminto the Gdarkness you’ll D/F#go
FInto the Gdarkness you’ll Cgo
[Chorus]
  COh-o-o Foh, oh-o-o-Go, oh-o-o Amoh, Goh-o-o

Go Cmake yourself near to the Fbroken
Make Gpeace, make dinner, make AmroomG  
BeClieve in the stories of Fwomen
Who reGturn from an empty tombAm  G  
When Cyou have befriended your Fgrief
And Gthere’s nothing left to showAm  G  
CAll that you’ve lost one Fday you will keep
When Ginto the darkness, Aminto the Gdarkness you’ll D/F#go
FInto the Gdarkness you’ll Cgo
