Dark [Abm] in my heart, and now I don't know if I'll recover.
I'm [Ebm] going under.
And as I'm headed out the front door, [Bbm] she says she's proud of me.

[Db] And once more.
Even through the joy, I [Abm] feel the pain.
Even in the sun, I [Ebm] feel the rain.
Even when I'm high, I [Bbm] feel the low.
It won't end well if I stay in my [Db] neighborhood.
