E A/E E Shadows are falling and I been here all day A/E E It's too hot to sleep and time is running away B B/A E/G# E Feel like my soul has turned into steel C#m E/B A E I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal B B/A E/G# E There's not even room enough to be anywhere C#m E/B A E It's not dark yet, but it's getting there Well my sense of humanity is going down the drain Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind She put down in writin' what was in her mind I just don't see why I should even care It's not dark yet, but it's getting there Well I been to London and I been to gay Paris I followed the river and I got to the sea I've been down to the bottom of a world full of lies I ain't lookin for nothin' in anyone's eyes Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear It's not dark yet, but it's getting there I was born here and I'll die here, against my will*) I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer It's not dark yet, but it's getting there You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  C#m  E  G#  B  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
