Darkness Descends Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You're holding bits of [D]styrofoam
With your face painted on to [G]your friends
You listen to [D]them whine and moan
About everything you can't under[G]stand
Can [A]I just say I don't feel the light,
But darkness descends once
more into my [G]life
And [D]suddenly we're

[Verse 2]
all alone
In silence so I take a step [G]away
I look up to [D]the falling snow
As it makes its home upon my [G]face
Well I [A]wouldn't want to ruin
something I couldn't save
The gap will keep us safe,
the gap will keep us [Bm]safe

[Verse 3]
Step [A]away, [Bm]get me when[A] I'm

[Interlude 1]
down
[Em][A][G][Em][G][A][G]

[Verse 4]
And suddenly [D]I'm five years old
And I'm just so cold I want to [G]cry
I haul up on [D]my gentlemen
Who have always been there
in [G]hard times
They're [A]just not like that man of mine
Who visits me from time to [Bm]time

[Verse 5]
My [A]love, [Bm]I treasure [A]you
[Em][G][A]

[Verse 6]
[Em]I he[A]ar t[G]hat summer
[D]s coming back
So I stretch out my back [G]and travel on
The winter though [D]it darkens me
It is pure and clean and all [G]I want
[A]Ill apologise to the ones I love
For leaving them when the sun
comes [Bm]up

[Verse 7]
Too [A]bright for [Bm]me, darkens d[A]escends
[Em]Oh w[G]ell [A]I'[G]m no[A]t [Em]well [G]again[A]
and [Em]once more darkness [A]it descends
The [Em]ground is falling [G]un [A]der me
And [Em]I cant find th[A]e means

[Verse 8]
to leave
[G]
Convinced that I [D]am going mad
Oh I bury my head into [G]his hands
So sure that I [D]am losing faith
Oh I clear a space in his father[G]s land
You [A]deal with god far too young,
Before you know it your life has run away
