[Intro]

E

[Verse 1]

E                   A                      E

Shadows are falling and I've been here all day

                          A               E

It's too hot to sleep and time is running away

B            B/A      G#m         E

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

C#m                 B              A          E

I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal

B                B/A            G#m      E

There's not even room enough to be anywhere

[Refrain]

C#m           B         A           E

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

[Verse 2]

E                      A                    E

Well my sense of humanity is going down the drain

E                             A                         E

Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain

B              B/A            G#m         E

She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind

C#m             B                A      E

She put down in writin' what was in her mind

B                B/A G#m           E

I just don't see why I should even care

[Refrain]

C#m            B             A      E

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

[Verse 3]

E                     A                 E

Well I been to London and I been to gay Paris

E                    A                E

I followed the river and I got to the sea

B                     B/A         G#m           E

I've been down to the bottom of a world full of lies

C#m                B          A        E

I ain't lookin for nothin' in anyone's eyes

B            B/A       G#m             E

Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear

[Refrain]

C#m            B        A           E

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

[Verse 4]

E                                  A          E

I was born here and I'll die here, against my will

E                               A                E

I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still

B                 B/A         G#m       E

Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb

C#m                           B                  A            E

I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from

B          B/A      G#m            E

Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer

[Refrain]

C#m           B             A       E

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
