Key: C

Verse 1:
F
I was on a train
Dm                            C    Cmaj7
Heading for the veins of your heart
F
You were lookin' in
        Dm                   C  Cmaj7
But the passenger window was dark

Pre-chorus:
F                      Dm                        C
  Slow swim in sloe-gin, getting lost in the labyrinth
                                Cmaj7                      F
I've been grinnin' through Easter like an ordinary creature
                     Dm
Farewell, my dreaded fear
                             C     Cmaj7
Thank you, but I'm out of here now
Chorus:
F                    Dm                              C Dm7 C/E
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out
F                    Dm                              C G Dm C/E
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out

Verse 2:
F
I was in a dream
Dm                             C   Cmaj7
Swimming up the stream to your door
Fmaj7
Flowers in the window
Dm                                    C
Sweater on the bed, what's your day like?
                    Cmaj7        Dm     F
What's your day without all your problems?

Pre-chorus:
                     Dm                             C
Slow life in low tide, gettin' back to my clementine
                             Cmaj7                      F
I've been strolling the beaches like an ordinary creature
                     Dm
Farewell, my dreaded fear
                              C    Dm7 Cmaj7
Thank you, but I'm out of here now

Chorus:
F                    Dm                              C Dm7 C/E
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out
F                    Dm                              C G Dm C/E
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out
F                    Dm                              C Dm7 C/E
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out
F                    Dm                              C
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out

Outro:
F                    Dm                              C
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out

(I've been dancing with you like an ordinary creature)
F                    Dm                              C
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out

(Like an ordinary creature)
F                    Dm                              C
I wish I could run to your house when it gets dark out

  When it gets dark out
