Stories In The DarkCifra

Verse 

G 
I met superman with you 

Charlie Brown and Jesus too 

On those nights I couldn't sleep 

You were always there with me 
             C                 D      Em 
When I was young and faint of heart 
                 Am            C 
You'd tell me stories in the dark 


G 
And when I felt I couldn't fly 

You and peter took me on a ride 

You said 'son don't be afraid to die.' 

we had an awfully great adventure 
        C              D       Em 
Now so much of who we are 
              Am            C 
Is in those stories in the dark 





        C                    G 
What we learned when we were young 
           Am 
Sets the table for our lives 
         C                    G 
Bread we break it fills our hearts 
            Am 
It feeds our loss 
    C Em  Am            C                      
And even though you're not here anymore 
           G 
I hear your voice 




verse 2 

G 
Cats in the cradle and the silver spoon 

Used to make me cry guess I still do 

I didn't want that for me and you 

You know we'll be together soon 
             C               D     Em 
'Cuz when I wonder where you are 
               Am            C 
I hear those stories in the dark

I know someday i'll tell my own 

And then someday when you've moved on 

I'll tell him son don't be afraid to die 

We had an awfully great adventure

I hear your voice
