  			"Under A Very Black Sky" 

G             Em 
I had a dream you had a weapon 
D                         Am 
I couldn’t see it in the dark of the night 
G            Em   
It’s easy to hide  
D                  G 
under a very black sky 

G                         Em 
Over the moon just beyond Saturn 
D                         Am 
I watched in vein as the missiles took flight 
G           Em    D                  G 
We lost our lives under a very black sky 

Unknown 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 

G              Em  
Colors explode under your microscope 
D                             Am 
But just through my eyes it’s all black and white 
G         Em   D                  G 
I lost my mind under a very black sky 

G 
We live our lives mostly pretending 
D                         Am 
You have a secret, you’ll never know mine 
G           Em       D                  G 
I'll wear a disguise under a very black sky 

G            Em 
It’s easy to love you 
        Am               D              Em 
Easy as hell when you’re anyone, anyone else 
G               Em 
It’s so hard to fake it 
               Am             D              Em  G   Am 
I know you can tell if you’re anyone, anyone e - e - else 
          D              Em  G   Am 
If you’re anyone, anyone e - e - else 
          D 
If you’re anyone, anyone 

Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 

G                        Em          
At first you believe and then you start lying 
D                         Am 
Swallowing pain like it’s shredded up glass 
G            Em     Am           D 
I’m bleeding inside under a very black sky 

G                           Em          
Disappointment is cruel but hope can be crueler 
D                        Am 
I felt them both 'til I thought I could die 
G                Em  Am                  D 
Now my tears are dry under a very black sky 

Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 

Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 
Under a black sky 

Under a black sky 
Under a black sky
