Verse 1: (0:22) 
D       Em               D
It's no secret why we're here
D         Em             D
You can't keep it from it
D         Em                    B    A
In another moonless minute it's open wide
D        Em               D
You hide secrets from them
D       Em                  D
You hide secrets but they're spent
D                 Em                 B     A
All that kept the lights on when the power went

What turns up in the dark

D         Em            D
You can't see them in it
D       Em                 D
It gets weaker, watch it  go
D             Em               B      A
Wrap yourself around me in the shadow show
D        Em               D
You hide secrets from them
D             Em              D
They were the weakest ones we heard
D            Em                       B         A
Only when the lights were killed they sang that verse
