         F                 
The day is almost over and the sunlight is going 
              Eb 
And the people walk through shadows completely unknowing 
                     Bb                                                            F 
That there's something lethal in the air that they can't see. 

           F 
Now a Time Lord could save me just by turning on a light 
                   Eb 
Although I don't think that the Doctor's gonna show up tonight 
              Bb                                                             F 
So I'm trying to remember what the Library said to me. 

          F                                  Eb 
Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see  
                    Bb                                                          F 
'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me. 

                       F 
So count the shadows, 
                     Eb 
Count the shadows, 
                      Bb 
Cause they're edging toward you 
                                        F 
Like a hungry moth to a flame 
                   F 
Count the shadows, 
                   Eb 
Count the shadows, 
                         Bb 
Cause if you've got more than one  
                                                         F 
Then you're the victim that they will claim. 

          F 
In the Library the darkness is waiting to attack, 
              Eb 
Some explorers went inside but they ain't never comin' back, 
             Bb                                                                  F 
Namely Miss Evangelista, Anita, and two guys called Dave. 
              F 
And the shadows made four thousand other people disappear 
                            Eb    
And they've been hungry and waiting for a whole damn year 
               Bb                                                           F 
For some fresh meat that isn't gonna register as saved. 

          F                                  Eb 
Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see

                   F 
Count the shadows, 
                   Eb 
Count the shadows, 
                         Bb

    F       
Invisible carnivorous aggressive armada 
                Eb 
And they go by the name of the Vashta Nerada, 
    Bb                                                              F 
A thousand thousand million piranhas in the air. 
             F  
And the tingle on your skin that you feel in the dark 
                     Eb 
Might be the hungry ones who contemplate leaving a mark 
                         Bb                                                                     F 
So when you're reaching for the light switch make sure you're prepared.
