[Intro]
Bm D F#m E
[Verse 1]
You're watching your favoBmrite shDow F#m E
When the TBmV dieDd F#m E
The biggest pBmower-Dcut in your nF#meighbourEhood since Bm1989D F#m E
BmA blacDkout in the cF#menter of tEown
But Bmdown in the Dsuburbs where it fF#mirst went Eout
They've been asBmking, asDking the quF#mestion E
[Chorus 1]
AAre you afraid of the Amaj7darkness?
DAre you afraid of the Dmaj7darkness?
F#mI'm afraid of the Edarkness tDoo
[Verse 2]
In the BmhospitDal F#m E
On the BmcriticDal ward F#m E
Too long a Bmbreath bDetween
The F#mbreak and the Ebackup of a Bmlife supDport F#m E
BmOne sysDtem failure and it F#mstopped her Eheart
BmOne poDwer vacuum and we're cF#moming aEpart
We should be asBmking, asDking the queF#mstion E
[Chorus 2]
AAre you afraid of the Amaj7darkness?
DAre you afraid of the Dmaj7darkness?
F#mI'm afraid of the Edarkness Dtoo
AWe're all caught in the Amaj7blackout
DTrying to fDmaj7eel our way out F#m
Wait for the Emorning
I'll be waiting for yDou
[Post-Chorus]
BmMeet me in the middle
DMeet me in the middle
F#mBring a burning candle with yEou
BmMeet me in the middle
DMeet me in the middle
F#mI will be there waiting for yEou
[Bridge]
I was in my Bmcomfort Dzone F#m E
I was singing Bmselfish Dsongs F#m E
I've been Bmtaking Dfor granted everF#myone underEstood how easy tBmrouble cDomes F#m E
But it's nBmot enoDugh anymore F#m E
We can't just tBmurn aroDund and cF#mlose the doEor on the wBmorld
It's askingD uneasy qF#muestions E
Bm D F#m (BREAK)
We should be asking ourselves uneasy questions
[Chorus 2]
AAre you afraid of the Amaj7darkness?
DAre you afraid of the Dmaj7darkness?
F#mI'm afraid of the Edarkness Dtoo
AWe're all caught in the Amaj7blackout
DTrying to fDmaj7eel our way out F#m
Wait for the Emorning
I'll be waiting for yDou
[Outro]
BmMeet me in the middle
DMeet me in the middle
F#mBring a burning candle with yEou
BmMeet me in the middle
DMeet me in the middle
F#mI will be there waiting for yEou
BmMeet me in the middle
DMeet me in the middle
F#mBring a burning candle with yEou
BmMeet me in the middle
