Lyrics

[Intro]
Bb F Bb F
Dm                F
  Well, you're my friend

[Verse 1]
Bb            F
  And can you see
Bb Dm
     Many times we've been out drinking
                            Bb
Many times we've shared our thoughts
Dm
  But did you ever, ever notice
                       Bb
The kind of thoughts I got?
Am
  Well, you know I have a love
Dm                          Bb
  A love for everyone I know
Am
  And you know I have a drive
Dm                     Bb
  To live, I won't let go
Dm
  But can you see its opposition
      Bb
Comes rising up sometimes?
Dm
  That its dreadful and position
                     Bb
Comes blacking in my mind

[Chorus]
Bb                 F
  And that I see a darkness
                 Bb
And that I see a darkness
                 F
And that I see a darkness
                 Bb
And that I see a darkness
                        F
Did you know how much I love you?
                       Bb
Is a hope that somehow you
                      F
Can save me from this darkness

[Verse 2]
Dm
  Well, I hope that someday, buddy
We have peace in our lives
F
 Together or apart
Dm
  Alone or with our wives
F                    Dm
 And we can stop our whoring
                      Bb
And pull the smiles inside
                   F
And light it up forever
                Am
And never go to sleep
                 C
My best unbeaten brother
                 Am Bb
This isn't all I see

[Chorus]
Bb               F
  Oh no, I see a darkness
               Bb
Oh no, I see a darkness
               F
Oh no, I see a darkness
               Bb
Oh no, I see a darkness
                        F
Did you know how much I love you?
                       Bb
Is a hope that somehow you
                      F
Can save me from this darkness
