Dear darkness, Dear darkness
Won't you cover, cover me a gain
Dear darkness, dear
I've been your friend for many years
Won't you do this for me, dearest darkness and
cover me from the sound of the
Words tightening, the words are tightening
Around my throat and and
Around the throat of the one I love
Tightening tightening tigh tening
Around the throat of the one I love
Tightening tightening tigh tening
Dear darkness, dear darkness
Dm Now it's your Em time to C look after F us
Cause we Am kept you F clothed, we Am kept you in F business

So now it's your time, time to pay
To pay me and the one I love
With the worldly goods you've stashed way
With all the things you took from us
