Intro: Dm (add a thumb on the top strings)
Dm
Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark
F
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
Dm F
And besides, in the mean meantime I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart
Dm
I'm in details with the devil
F
The world can't ever get me on my level
Dm
I just got to get you out the cage
I'm a young lover's rage
F
Gonna need a spark to ignite
Dm
My songs know what you did in the dark
Chorus:
Dm
So light 'em up, up, up
Fm
Light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
I'm on fire
Dm
So light 'em up, up, up
Fm
Light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
I'm on fire
Dm F C
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh in the dark, dark
Dm F C
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh in the dark, dark
Dm
The writers keep writing what they write
F
Somewhere another pretty vein just dies
Dm
I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see
F
That you're the antidote to everything except for me
Dm
A constellation of tears on your lashes
F
Burn everything you love then burn the ashes
In the end everything collides
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see
Dm
My songs know what you did in the dark
Chorus:
Dm
So light 'em up, up, up
Fm
Light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
I'm on fire
Dm
So light 'em up, up, up
Fm
Light 'em up, up, up
F
Light 'em up, up, up
C
I'm on fire
Dm F C
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh in the dark, dark
Dm F C
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh in the dark, dark

My songs know what you did in the dark

My songs know what you did in the dark
