These are the chords and lyrics should be close enough to correct with regard to
Bill's re-released version of I See A Darkness as heard on the EP "Now Here's My
Plan." You can hear it on youtube at: watch?v=d-xSxWX7_-4
In that recording, it is played in the key of G#, I believe, but since I like to
play things simply when I first learn them, here's the song in C. Enjoy!
-Intro-
F - C
F - C - C
AmWell, you're my frCiend, (that's what you told mFe)
And can you see (whCat's inside of me) F
AmMany times we've been out drinking
And many times we've shared our thoughtFs
AmBut did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I goFt
EmWell you know I have a lAmove for everyone I knowF
EmAnd you know I have thisAm drive to live I won't leFt go
AmBut could you see its opposition comes arising up soFmetimes
AmThat its dreadful imposition comes blacking in my mind F
And then I see a daCrkness
And then I see a daFrkness
And then I see a daCrkness
And then I see a daFrkness
And did you know how much I loveC you
Is there a hope that somehowF you, you
Can save me from this daCrkness
AmWell I hope that someday buddy
We have peace in our livCes
Together or aparFt
Alone or with our wives C
And we can stop our whorAming
And pull the smiles insiFde
And light it up foreveCr
And never go to Emsleep
My best unbeaten brotherG
This isn't all IEm se
-
e FOh no, I see a darkCness
Oh no, I see a darkFness
Oh no, I see a darkCness
Oh no, I see a darkFness
And did you know how much I loveC you
Is there a hope that somehowF you, you
Can save me from this daCrkness
