G C Em D
G C Em
It’s Going Dark Now
G C G
When I’m all alone
G C Em
I kissed your picture
G C G
Like you were still my own
G C Em
I followed your footsteps,
G C G
With a trail of tears
G C Em
If you still want me to find you
G C G
I’ll say a little prayer
(Bridge)
D Em
It’s not gonna be obvious
D Em
I’m sometimes hard to read
C D G C Em D
Like a book, written in Chinese
(Chorus)
G C
Going dark now,
Em D G C Em D
darker than the ocean blue
G C
Going dark now,
Em D
baby I love you

G C Em
It’s Going Dark Now
G C G
When the sun refuses to shine
G C Em
I read all your letters
G C G
Like you’d always be mine
G C Em
I heard your laughter
G C G
In my waking life
G C Em
But there will be no happily ever after
G C D(let ring)
Cause Happiness is only found with an eight-dollar movie ticket
G C D(let ring)
And love is only captured with a steel frame and a dying rose
G C D
And love is just an endless sea, a sea of dreamers anyway
G C Em D
(A sea of dreamers anyway!)
(Chorus)
G C
The lights are on but nobody’s home
Em D
And I’m all alone.
