[Intro 1]
[G][D][G][D][C][G][D]

[Verse 1]
[C]As a child,
I [D]was frightened
[G]When someone put out the lig[Em]ht
[C]I thought those dar[D]k, evil demons
[G]Only ever came out at [Em]night

[Verse 2]
[C]Now I wake up in the morning[D]
[G]Can't keep them demons at bay[Em]
I [C]look in the mirror [D]frightened by the
light of the [G]day[C][G][Am]
[D]Frightened by the light of the day

[Verse 3]
[G]I made a cross once to cha[C]se them away
[G]I prayed to God,
but even [C]he was afraid

[Verse 4]
[C]Somebody help me
[Dm]I can't stan[F]d this emptiness[C]
I've known your love
And [Dm]I need it to[F] sur[G]vive
[C]I'm sound in body and sou[Dm]nd in min[F]d
But this empti[C]ness
Like some [Dm]disease, it eats away [F]inside
[G]
[Em][G]

[Verse 5]
[C]I am frightened of dyi[D]ng
[G]I'm afraid for my sou[Em]l
[C]Afraid of where it is hid[D]ing
[G]Afraid of where it will go[Em]

[Verse 6]
[C]I am frightened of kno[D]wing
[G]But more afraid not to [Em]know
If [C]I chose this life
I [D]chose it from the very
back [G]row[C][Am]
[D]I chose it from the very back row

[Verse 7]
[G]I made a cross once to cha[C]se them away
[G]I prayed to God,
but even [C]he was afraid

[Verse 8]
[C]Somebody help me
[Dm]I can't stan[F]d this emptiness[C]
I've known your love
And [Dm]I need it to[F] sur[G]vive
[C]I'm sound in body
[Dm]and sound in m[F]ind
But this empti[C]ness
Like some disease,
[Dm]it eats away in si[F]de
[G][Em]

[Verse 9]
[C]As a child, I was[D] frightened
[G]When someone put out the[Em] light
[C]I thought those dar[D]k, evil demons
[G]Only ever came out at [Em]night

[Verse 10]
[C]Now I wake up in the morning[D]
[G]Can't keep them demons a[D]t bay[Em]
