Verse:

D               A  D                   A
I tried in vain to drive myself insane

D           G        A       D
I talk to myself but I don't listen

n.c.
I found out what I was missing

Chorus:

G      G/F#           Em
I miss talking in the dark

        A
Without you, I'm not conversational

A
Without the sense of the occasional

A
Without you, I miss talking in the dark

A        D
When the barking and the biting is through

Bridge:

Em                                A
We can talk like we're in love or talk like we're above it

Em                            A
We can talk and talk until we talk ourselves out of it

Instrumental:
D  C  D  G  Em  A7

I look for the news, somebody to abuse

D           G        A       D
I look at myself but it's so chancy

n.c.
I see things that I don't fancy

Chorus:

G      G/F#           Em
I miss talking in the dark

Without the sense of the occasional

A
Without you, I miss talking in the dark

A
Without you, I miss talking in the dark

A
Without you, I miss barking in the dark

A
Without you, I miss barking in the dark
