Intro:  Em - G - C - G (x2)

    Am                   C          G            D
The room filled with the stain of a hundred cigarettes
  Am              C      G             D
Sober through the haze, just one silhouette
   Am           Cmaj7*       C
Fumble with the keys in the door
                  Em
But dont turn the light on
              C
Dont turn the light on

Em              G            C         G
We dont need to wait for our eyes to adjust
      Em            G          C       G
Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch
    Em                      G               C      G
The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need
          Em                 G                 C     G
Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see

     Am           C             G                  D
Dim lit, the room black, we can keep those candles out
Am                 C          G             D
Shapes, we paint a map, where this is going now
  Am             Cmaj7*        C
A novel with the words I wanna say
                  Em
But dont turn the light on
              C
Dont turn the light on

Em              G            C         G
We dont need to wait for our eyes to adjust
      Em            G          C       G
Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch
    Em                      G               C      G
The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need
          Em                 G                 C     G
Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see

Em         Dsus4*            C
Sun breaks cracks in closed blinds
Em       B7th*           C
We never once close our eyes


Em              G            C         G
We dont need to wait for our eyes to adjust
      Em            G          C       G
Yeah, we can see it all by the time we touch
    Em                      G               C      G
The streetlight through the shutters may be all we need
          Em                 G                 C     G
Cause the more the room goes dark, the more of you I see
    Em     G          C        G
The more I see
          Em     G          C        G
Yeah, the more I see

       Em           G          C              G
In the Dark, in the night, dim lit and closed eyes
       Em             G                    C           G
In the black, when we touch, streetlight’s more than enough

    Em     G          C        G
The more I see
          Em     G          C        G
