C
[Verse 1]
 CShadow's are falling, FI've been here all Cday
 CIt's too hot to sleep  Fand time is running aCway
 GFeel like my Fsoul has Emturned into steCel
 AmI've still got the sGcars that the Fsun didn't Cheal
 GThere's not even roFom enough to Embe anyCwhere
AmIt's not dark Emyet but it's Cgetting there
[Verse 2]
CWell my sense of humanity Fhas gone down the Cdrain
CBehind every beautiful thing Fhas been some kind of pCain
GShe wrote me a letFter and she Emwrote it so kCind
AmShe put down in writGing what was Fon her mCind
GI just don't see Fwhy EmI should even cCare
Oh Amit's not dark Emyet but it's Cgetting there
[Verse 3]
CWell I've been to London Fand I've been to gCay Paris
I followed the river Fand I got to Csea
GI've been down to the botFtom of a Emwhirlpool of lCies
AmAre you looking for Gnothing in Fanyone's eCyes
GSometimes my Fburden is Emmore than I can bCear
Oh Amit's not dark Emyet but it's Cgetting there
[Verse 4]
CI was born here and I'll die here Fagainst my Cwill
CI know it looks like I'm moving Fbut I'm standing Cstill
GEvery nerve in my boFdy is so Emnaked and nCumb
AmI can't even remember Gwhat it was FI came here to get aCway from
GDon't even hFear the Emmurmur of a pCrayer
AmIt's not dark Gyet but it's Fgetting tChere (it's getting there)
