[Verso 1]
C
Shadows converging in my mind
G
Of the love I've left behind
Dm
Drifting into cloudy skies
G C
Gettin' lost behind your eyes
C
But now my dreams they come alive
Dm
With your kisses, I remember
G
All those lonely, lonely nights
F C
We got caught out in the rain
[Refrão]
C
And was our love a work of art
Dm
Before the painting fell apart
G
And what was that I heard you say
F C
It's just the darkness of the day
C
And were we better at the start
Dm
Before I offered you my heart
G
Before the demons came to play
F C
Within the darkness of the day
C
And how can I be so afraid
Dm
Of broken promises I made
G
Now I watch your memory fade
F C
Into the darkness of the day
[Verso 2]
C
Sinking into isolation
G
Searching for a motivation
Dm
Cuz love is not an occupation
G C
Just a shelter from the rain
C
Staring out my bedroom window
Dm
Thinking baby are you there
G
Staring out your bedroom window
F C
Baby do you even care
[Refrão]
C
Was our love a work of art
Dm
Before the painting fell apart
G
And what was that I long to say
F C
It's just the darkness of the day
C
And were we better at the start
Dm
Before I offered you my heart
G
Before the demons came to play
F C
Within the darkness of the day
C
And how can I be so afraid
Dm
Of broken promises I made
G
Now I watch your memory fade
F C
Into the darkness of the day
C
And how can I be so afraid
Dm
Broken promises we made
G
Now I watch our memory fade
F C
Into the darkness of the day
C
It's just the darkness of the day
C
Only the darkness of the day
C
Only the darkness of the day
