G                       Am7 
Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo  x4

G
We started looking for you 
Am7
In the darker caves 
G
We had a lot of love 
   Am
We thought would light the way 
G                                            
We saw the wrecks of buildings 
Em     
And ships that sank in starlight 
G                       
We saw the ghosts of angels 
Em                                  C        
That spoke of falls from tremendous heights

                           Am7
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
                           G
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
                           Am7
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
                           G
Don't you leave us in the dark... 

We saw your old flames 
And some were burning yet 
It made us smile to see 
Just how well tended each was kept 
But other fires were burning too 
And I saw the battlefields         
The dying Light Brigade 
Stretched out upon the wheel

Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark... 

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo x4

Every heart is much the same 
We tell ourselves down here 
The same chambers fed by veins 
The same maze of love and fear 
We thought you were a saint 
But the halo was an eye 
It's hard to see how there could be 
So much dark inside the light

Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark... 
Don't you leave us in the dark...
