Standard (EADGBE)

Do you cry in the dark because it's easier to be

 alone than to talk?

When the words aren't working and you don't know

 how to ex- plain these thoughts

Every look and every (e)motion has a deeper meaning

Everybody hurts nobody only when they're dreaming

Do you cry in the dark?

 The light hurts when it hits your face

You don't want anyone to see you this way

You only want to be loved and taken away by someone

So you cry in the dark

And the picture of you holding hands by the fire is fading fast

And your heart is closing and you don't know how to get off this track

Every day you mime a prayer though your faith is shaken

Your godmother has got nobody because everybody's taken

Do you cry in the dark?

The light hurts when it hits your face

You don't want anyone to see you this way

You only want to be loved and taken away by someone

So you cry in the dark

<guitar solo="" i="" chord-wise="" played="" like="" verse="">

 This emotion is an ocean

 The waves are getting high

 I'll find an island, call it mine

  (->

  in chorus)

I'm swimming for my life

Do you cry in the dark?

The light hurts when it hits your face

You don't want anyone to see you this way

You only want to be loved and taken away by someone

So you cry in the dark
