Verse 1:
Bb                  Gm         Ab                         C
  The emotion it was  electric,  and the stars they all aligned.
F                        Bb   (Gm)  Ab                     Eb
  I knew I had to make my  decision,  but I never made the time.
Ab                     Eb        Bb
  No, I never made the time.

Chorus 1:
       Bb          F                  Gm       Eb
In the dark, for a while now, I can't stay, so far.
        Bb         Gm      Ab          Cm     (F)    Bb
I can't stay, much longer, riding my decision home.

Verse 2:
Bb                    Gm       Ab                          C
  Exoneration lost his  eraser,  but my forgiver found the sun.
F                                  Bb     (Gm)    Ab                      Eb
  And there are twisted days that I  take comfort,  'cos I'm not the only one.
Ab                     Eb        Bb
  No, I'm not the only one.

Chorus 2:
       Bb          F                  Gm         Eb
In the dark, for a while now, I can't stay, very far.
        Bb         Gm      Ab          Cm     (F)    Bb    Bb
I can't stay, much longer, riding my decision home.

Middle Eight:
F#                     C#   (Ab)     F#                        C#    (Ab)
  There is a majesty at  my doorstep,  there is a little boy in  her arms.
F#                             C#    (Ab)       F#                  F       F
  Now we'll parade around with - out game plans,  obligations, or alarm.

Chorus 3:
       Bb          F                  Gm         Eb
In the dark, for a while now, I can't stay, very far.

I can't stay, much longer, riding my decision home.

In the dark, for a while now, I can't stay, so far.
