Chorus:
    D           A#      Gm      D
And in your life there comes a darkness
       F       A#         Am        D
This spacecraft, blocking out the sky
     A#        Gm       D
And there's nowhere to hide
      F          A#            Am         D
You run to look back, and you cover your ears
              A#      Gm                 D
But it's the loudest sound  you've ever heard
     F     A#            Am           D
Now we're trapped, we're dark clouds people
        A#     Gm     D
We are helpless to resist
A#      D#       A
In your darkest hour

                   A
But it was just a lie,
just a lie, just a lie, just a lie
             A#
Even at this angle
            Gm
And so we crumble
               A
Still turning heads,
you know where it's at,
this dread still covers us
             A#
You gotta be kidding me
                Gm
The grass grows over me
                   A
Your face in the glass,
in the glass, it was just a laugh,
just a laugh
                   A#
It's whatever you say it is
        Gm
Split infinite

Chorus:
Then into your life, there comes a darkness
And a spacecraft blocking out the sky
And there's nowhere to hide
You run to the back and you cover your ears
But it's the loudest sound you've ever heard
Into your darkest hour

                Asus2       C
When you've had enough of me
                            Em
When you've had enough of me
      Asus2  C Em
Sweet darling
When you've had enough of me
When you've had enough of me
Sweet darling
Sweet times
Sweet darling
Sweet times
