CmGCmGmCmGmCmGCmDVerse 1:
Gm
When did I become afraid of the dark? Are my
Gm
Eyeballs just yet to adjust to seeing the light?
CmGm
The room I’m in is still the same, the shadows have not rearranged it
AD
No the only thing that’s changed is how I see at night
CmGm
I fumble for the switch and strap on infrareds and wish for
EbDGm
Sunshine when the morning’s somewhere else
GmCm
But I can’t change what time it is or dilate my irises
FDD
Only what I look at, and I’m looking at myself
Chorus 1:
GmACmD
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
GmACmD
Well, who else could I be when I can’t hardly see
GmACmD
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
GmEbADGm
I’m no one if I’m nowhere in between
Interlude: GmVerse 2:
Gm
When did I become afraid of the dark? Was it
Gm -nc-
When I left the cave and swore I’d never go back?
CmGm
If we can’t see each other then there’s no more use for hiding
AD
I’ve decided I’ll abide it, why deny the color black?
CmGm
I’m not a flower, not a solar-powered calculator
EbDGm
Damn my eyes for seeing what’s not there
GCm
I’ll trade in vision for a practiced intuition
FDD7
Till my fears come to fruition I’m not scared
Chorus 1:
GmACmD
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
GmACmD
Well who else could I be when I can’t hardly see
GmACmD
I am not the sunshine, I am not the moon at night
GmEbADGm
I’m no one if I’m nowhere in between

GmEbCmGm
The future must know where you’ve been
GmCmDGm
The past predicts the state you’re in
GmEbCmGmGmEbAD
The present did and will not last, is. isn’t. was. Have. hasn’t. has
GmA7DGm
All that I ask is, keep those empty frames
GmCmDD7
If nobody’s in them, then no one is to blame
GmA7DGm
For your self-portraits, sign another name
GCmAbG
Well, who should I be then, if I’ll never be the same?
Chorus 2:
CmDFmG
I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night
CmDFmG7
Who else could I be, when I can’t xxxxing see?
CmDFmG
I will be my sunshine, I will be my moon at night
CmAbFmG
I’m nowhere now here’s no one now to be
