Generate meaning
1
Hammer on both strings for the Em.
2
You will have to experiment
3
To get the exact position of the chord changes with respect
4
To the lyrics but this is close.
5
In the dark you can sometimes hear your own heartbeat
6
Or the heart of the one next to you
7
And the house settles down after holding itself up all day
8
Shoulders slump, gives a big sigh
9
You hear no ones footfall in the hall
10
That drip in the kitchen sink keeps marking time
11
June bug on the window screen can't get in but keeps on trying
12
One way or another we're all in the dark
13
Fireflies and sparks and lightning, stars
14
Campfires, the moon headlights on cars
15
The Northern lights, the milky way
16
You can't see that stuff in the day
17
The Earth turns it's back on the sun
18
And the stars come out and the planets start to run around
19
They call that 'day is done
20
But really it's just getting started
21
Some folks take comfort in that
22
How dark is it it's too dark for goblins
23
How dark is it it's so dark you can smell the moon
24
How dark is it it's so dark the wind gets lost
25
How dark is it so dark the sky's on fire
26
How dark is it so dark you can see Fort Worth from here
