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

SOLO

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

SOLO

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