Tuning: E A D G B E
[Verse 1]
Let me Gstay with you a while and tell old, old C/Gstories G D G Gadd11 Of your oft' electric laughter and your charms How you Gcame out of Montana with a wolf pup at your C/Gheels G D G Gadd11 And a snow white rabbit huddled in your arms
[Chorus]
In the C/Gdarkness In the Gdarkness In the C/Gdarkness
[Verse 2]
RemGember, hey, those Gold Rush days, how the gold dust in the C/Gmud From MGain St. leading Dall the way to AGlder With Gsunset turned the color of a lover's throat at C/Gblush G D G Gadd11 And with moonrise, blazed some new and silver river
[Chorus]
In the C/Gdarkness In the Gdarkness In the C/Gdarkness
[Verse 3]
The mGinister was bloodless and the preachers were on fiC/Gre And MaGhatmas sang their Dlove songs in nGasturtiums But if Ghe, or they, or any of their masters called my nC/Game I wasG in your holy tDemple and never heGard them
[Chorus]
In the C/Gdarkness In the Gdarkness In the C/Gdarkness
[Break] G C/G G D G G C/G G D G [Verse 4]
RemGember, hey, those Gold Rush days, some Last Chance Gulch saC/Gloon YGou, and I, and aDll the miners wGatching As sGhadows danced across a screen as quiet as the C/Gmoon Without Gsound, their furDy signifying aGll things
[Verse 5]
The Gwhole town was alive that night as we floated down the C/Gstreet ThrougGh fist fights, cowboy Dpoets, parlor wGomen And theG light from the projector seemed to glow within your C/Gsoul Like an Gopal throated Dsongbird in its pGrism
[Chorus]
In the C/Gdarkness In the Gdarkness In the C/Gdarkness
[Verse 6]
They'reG tearing down the movies now, not a stone upon a C/Gstone All dGust is dust no Dmatter how ceGlestial But GI, who tasted hornet juice and honey on the C/Grose What Guse have I for aDll their cold mGemorials?
[Verse 7]
Still eGvery now and then sometimes when the night sky gets soC/G bright And no GBethlehem of sDtars could match its Gburning I GGo out into the fields until I can feel you by my C/Gside And my mGemory is a Dbook of gold thrown Gopen
[Bridge]
How you rode a C/Gwhite horse The queen of the Gharvest kissed your cheek The boys all took C/Gone look And found that they Gcould no longer speak
[Chorus]
In the C/Gdarkness In the Gdarkness In the C/Gdarkness
