 A 

            A 
We were drifting all night 
          F# 
Losing hold of the light 
       D 
But I saw in your eyes 
       A         E 
I was never alone 
     A 
Even when it got hard 
         F#m 
When the shore was too far 
       D 
Even there in your arms 
       A         E 
I've always been home 

D   A   D   E 
Ooooooooooo 

    F#m              D        A 
So sing while we're falling apart 
A 
I'll take you dancing 
   F#m               D            A 
We lived through the wreck of our hearts 
    E 
And now we're 
            F#m           D 
Just picking up the pieces 
                A 
Learning how to see when 
E                 A 
Love is in the dark 

          A 
There's a cold empty room 
          F# 
There's a windowless view 
          D 
There's a me without you 
               A            E 
But that's not where I belong 
             A 
Through the waves of the deep 
          F#m 
And the storms of the sea 
       D 
I have you and you me 
           A         E 
We're not too far gone 

F#m                 D         A 
So sing while we're falling apart 
A 
I'll take you dancing 
   F#m               D            A 
We lived through the wreck of our hearts 
    E 
And now we're 
            F#m           D 
Just picking up the pieces 
                A 
Learning how to see when 
E                 D 
Love is in the dark 

A               D 
Love is in the dark 
A               D 
Love is in the dark 
F#m       D 
Hmmmmmmmmm 

( E ) 

F#m                 D         A 
So sing while we're falling apart 
A 
I'll take you dancing 
   F#m               D            A 
We lived through the wreck of our hearts 
    E 
And now we're 
            F#m           D 
Just picking up the pieces 
                A 
Learning how to see when 
E                 A 
Love is in the dark 
                  D 
Love is in the dark
