G5 
Darkness darkness be my pillow 
        F5    C5    C5   G5 
Take my hand and  let me sleep 
G5 
In the coolness of your shadow 
       F5           C5  C5 G5 
In the silence     of your deep 
         C5                 G5 
Darkness darkness  hide the yearning 
        C5                   G5 
For the things that can not be 
        F5         C5   C5  G5 
Keep my mind from constant turning 
           F5      C5    C5 G5 
Toward the things I can not  see 
 
SOLO 
 

G5 
Darkness darkness long and lonesome 
       F5   C5   C5      G5 
Is the day that bring me here 
G5 
I have felt the edge of of silence 
       F5     C5   C5      G5 
I have known the depths of fear 
   C5                   G5 
Darkness darkness be my blanket 
      C5               G5 
Cover me with endless night 
     F5        C5    C5  G5 
Take away the pain of    knowing 
         F5      C5  C5 G5 
Fill the emptiness of   right now 
 
SOLO
