Darkness Settles In

[Intro]
B5
        B5
Another sun sets

[Verse 1]
Down behind me
Another day
Comes crashing in
There's a whispering
Wind that's blowing
There's a storm
That's closing in
I can hear the trains,
They're rolling
To a place
I've never been
And I can feel
Her breath beside me
With an empty
Glass of gin
       F#5
As the darkness
          B5
Settles in
      F#5
I can hear
             B5
Her voice again
      F#5
I can hear
            B5
Your voice again

[Chorus]
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To save me
    D5
But everyone
         A5
Just runs  away
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To change me
    D5
But no one
          A5
Ever comes
    E5           F#5
I'm breaking down
         B5
The walls  that cage me
    D5
But nothing
          A5
Ever falls  in place
E5         F#5
Waiting for   the
   B5
End  to take me
D5                A5
Blinded by the sun
G5 A5        B5
     All the ghosts that

[Verse 2]
Live inside me
Always waiting
In the wind
I can see through
My reflection
What I've become
And what I've been
You see, your Heaven
Doesn't want me
And your Hell
Won't let me in
It's like I'm holding
All the aces
But I know
I'll never win

[Chorus]
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To save me
    D5
But everyone
         A5
Just runs  away
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To change me
    D5
But no one
          A5
Ever comes
    E5           F#5
I'm breaking down
         B5
The walls  that cage me
    D5
But nothing
          A5
Ever falls  in place
E5         F#5
Waiting for   the
   B5
End  to take me
D5                A5
Blinded by the sun

[Bridge]
        B5
You can take it away,
Tear it all down
F#5
Spit in my face,
Pushed to the ground
D5               A5
Look what I've become
     B5
I've fallen from grace,
Bloodied and bound
F#5
Taking up space,
Lost and I'm found
D5               A5  G5 A5
Look what I've become

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
      B5
I can hear the snakes,
They're winding
Singing songs
Of pain and sin
There's an anger
Overflowing
From this empty
Glass of gin
       F#5
As the darkness
          B5
Settles in
        F#5
And the darkness
        B5
Settles in

[Chorus]
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To save me
    D5
But everyone
         A5
Just runs  away
E5         F#5       B5
Waiting for   someone
To change me
    D5
But no one
          A5
Ever comes
    E5           F#5
I'm breaking down
         B5
The walls  that cage me
    D5
But nothing
          A5
Ever falls  in place
E5         F#5
Waiting for   the
   B5
End  to take me
D5                A5
Blinded by the sun

[Outro]
B5
You can take it away
And the darkness settles in
You can take it away
And the darkness settles in
You can take it away
As the darkness settles in
