I See A Darkness Chords & Tabs
These are the chords and lyrics should be close enough to correct with regard to
Bill's re-released version of I See A Darkness as heard on the EP "Now Here's My
Plan." You can hear it on youtube at: watch?v=d-xSxWX7_-4
In that recording, it is played in the key of G#, I believe, but since I like to
play things simply when I first learn them, here's the song in C. Enjoy!
-Intro-
F - C
F - C - C
Am C F
Well, you're my friend, (that's what you told me)
C F
And can you see (what's inside of me)
Am
Many times we've been out drinking
F
And many times we've shared our thoughts
Am F
But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got

Em Am F
Well you know I have a love for everyone I know
Em Am F
And you know I have this drive to live I won't let go
Am F
But could you see its opposition comes arising up sometimes
Am F
That its dreadful imposition comes blacking in my mind
C
And then I see a darkness
F
And then I see a darkness
C
And then I see a darkness
F
And then I see a darkness
C
And did you know how much I love you
F
Is there a hope that somehow you, you
C
Can save me from this darkness
Am
Well I hope that someday buddy
C
We have peace in our lives
F
Together or apart
C
Alone or with our wives
Am
And we can stop our whoring
F
And pull the smiles inside
C
And light it up forever
Em
And never go to sleep
G
My best unbeaten brother
Em - F
This isn't all I see
C
Oh no, I see a darkness
F
Oh no, I see a darkness
C
Oh no, I see a darkness
F
Oh no, I see a darkness
C
And did you know how much I love you
F
Is there a hope that somehow you, you
C
Can save me from this darkness
