Tablature by Brandon Sackett


Intro: Play twice


Chords Played:              Em

Notes Played over Chords:   B



          Em
There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
       Em
In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
       Em
And it comes in black and it comes in white
        C
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it

     Em
When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
         Em
And your life doesn’t change by the man that’s elected
          Em
If you’re loved by someone, you’re never rejected
   C
Decide what to be and go be it


*Build up On C to go into the Chorus*

Chorus:

G
There was a dream and one day I could see it
       G
Like a bird in a cage I broke in and demanded that somebody free it
    G
And there was a kid with a head full of doubt
        C            G           D             C                D       G--D--C--Em
So I’ll scream til I die and the last of those bad thoughts are finally out


*Intro once more, just once*


          Em
There’s a darkness upon you that’s flooded in light
           Em
And in the fine print they tell you what’s wrong and what’s right
       Em
And it flies by day and it flies by night
        C
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it


-Chorus-

-Chorus-
          Em
There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
       Em
In the fine print they tell me what’s wrong and what’s right
          Em
There’s a darkness upon me that’s flooded in light
        C
And I’m frightened by those that don’t see it
