[Intro]
Am F C G
[Verse 1]
Am F
B-B-B-Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark
C G
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
Am F
And besides in the mean, mean time
C G
I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart
Am F
I'm in the de-details with the devil
C G
So now the world can never get me on my level
Am
I just gotta get you off the cage
F
I'm a young lover's rage
C
Gonna need a spark to ignite
Am F C G
My songs know what you did in the dark
[Chorus]
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
[Verse 2]
Am F
Writers keep writing what they write
C G
Somewhere another pretty vein just died
Am F
I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see
C G
That you’re the antidote to everything except for me, me
Am F
A constellation of tears on your lashes
C G
Burn everything you love, then burn the ashes
Am G
In the end everything collides
C G
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see
Am F C G
My songs know what you did in the dark
[Chorus]
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
Am F C G
My songs know what you did in the dark
[Chorus]
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am
So light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
Light 'em up, up, up
G
I'm on fire
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
Am F C G
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
In the dark, dark
Oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, whoa.
