[Intro]
Dm C G
[Verse]
Dm C G
I’m lying in my room
Dm C G
Back’s against the wall
Dm C G
The voices in my head
Dm C G
Playing with my heart
Dm C G
They say the drink won’t drown you
Dm C G
Smoke won’t burn your eyes
Dm C G
Idle hands are the devil’s playthings
Dm C G
Now the world starts to fall
[Chorus]
F C
Moon never rises
Gm Bb
Stars don’t shine
F C
Walking thru the darkness
Gm Bb A
Until these days of sorrow pass on by
[Pre-Verse]
Dm C G
[Verse]
Dm C G
Outside birds are singing
Dm C G
Flowers start to bud
Dm C G
The vines have nearly covered
Dm C G
The place we used to rest
Dm C G
Forgotten and forsaken
Dm C G
The day my lover left
Dm C G
Sweeping up the ashes
Dm C G
Scattered by the wind
[Chorus]
F C
Moon never rises
Gm Bb
Stars don’t shine
F C
Walking thru the darkness
Gm Bb A
Until these days of sorrow pass on by
[Outro]
Dm C G
Dm C G Dm C G
Sin amor la luna no brilla en mí
[Repeat this part as often as you want to.]
