E7/9  A major 6A6 E7/9  A major 6A6  A augmentedA    A9A9
In the dark,  it's just you and I;

A7/9  D9D9  D6D6    Dm7Dm7   Dm6Dm6
Not a sound,  there's not one sigh,

A augmentedA    C#m7-5 CdimCdim CdimCdim E MajorE      A augmentedA  F# minorF#m  F7F7  E7E7
Just the beat of  my   poor heart in the dark.

E7/9  A major 6A6     E7/9   A major 6A6 A augmentedA   A9A9
In the dark, in the dark, I get such a thrill

A7/9   D9D9     D6D6    DmDm Dm7Dm7 Dm6Dm6
When he presses his fingertips upon my lips,

A augmentedA   C#m7-5   CdimCdim Cdim  E MajorE      A augmentedA  D9D9   A augmentedA  A7A7
And he begs me to please  keep still in the dark.

Bridge

D9D9  D9D9 alt   DmDm      Dm7Dm7   A augmentedA
But soon,    this dance will be endin'

FF  Bb9Bb9 A augmentedA     A7A7
And you're gonna be missed

D9D9  D9D9 alt DmDm     Dm7Dm7
Gee,    I'm not pretendin'

A augmentedA     F# minorF#m  FF  Bb9Bb9 E7E7
'Cause I swear it's fun, fun to be kissed.


E7/9  A major 6A6  E7/9 A major 6A6 A augmentedA    A9A9
In the dark,   now we will find

A7/9   D9D9 D6D6   Dm7Dm7   Dm6Dm6
What the rest  have left behind;

A augmentedA  AM7    F#7F#7         D9D9  FF  E7E7
Just let them dance -- we're gonna find ro-mance,

E MajorE    A augmentedA  F# minorF#m  FF E7E7  A augmentedA
In the dark . . . in the dark.
