Intro Am C Bb 
 
C 
If I have weaknesses 
 
Don?t let them blind me 
                         Bb 
Or camouflage all I am wary of 
C                         Bb 
I could be sailing in seizures of laughter 
     C                          Am 
Or crawling out from under the heel of love 
        C 
Do my prayers remain unanswered 
         Bb 
Like a beggar at your sleeve 
      C  
Olodumare is smiling in heaven 
                             Am 
Smiling in heaven I do believe 
 
Reach in the darkness 
( C Bb ) 
A reach in the dark 
 
Reach in the darkness 
 
A reach in the dark 
 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
 
To glide away from the razor or a knife 
 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
                                        C 
To dominate the impossible in your life 
( C Bb ) 
Always a stranger when strange isn?t fashionable 
 
And fashion is rich people waving at the door 
C                     Bb 
Or it?s a dealer in drugs or in passion 
C                              Am 
Lies of a nature we?ve heard before 
      C 
Do my prayers remain unanswered 
          Bb 
Like a beggar at your sleeve 
            C 
Balalu-aye spins on his crutches 
 
Says leave if you want 
            Am 
If you want to leave 
( C Bb ) 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
A reach in the darkness 
Reach in the dark 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To glide away from the razor or a knife 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To dominate the impossible in your life 
Reach in the darkness  
A reach in the dark 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark 
To overcome an obstacle or an enemy 
To dominate the impossible in your life 
Reach in the darkness 
A reach in the dark
