Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Holding, you close, feels like, a cut-throat,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Losing blood, the weakness of, falling in love,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
And I was never afraid of the dark,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
And it’s true, I was never afraid of the dark,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Resisting, your soul, is walking, a tightrope,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
The distant sound, of dangerous ground, wolves are calling,
Em G Cmaj7
And I was never afraid of the dark,
Bm
No I was never afraid
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
And it’s true, I was never afraid of the dark,
Em G Cmaj7
And I was never afraid of the dark,
Bm
No I was never afraid
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Until you, oh the weapon you make of my heart,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
Love is believing,
Em G Cmaj7 Bm
love is believing…
