Dark Dark Dark - New York Song Dm C F Gm A Dm C F A Dm A Dm F Dm A Gm A Gm A Dm C F In the winter it was so, so cold Gm A The fish all died, the harbour froze Dm C F A There was nothing left for the crows to do but wait Gm Bb A And they said.... Dm They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed A Yes, being here is seeming to be the way Dm F Bb A Oh being here is better than wishing we had stayed... Dm A Dm F Dm Bbm Gm A Gm A Dm C F They stayed under water for so,so long Gm A They wait for the spring when the ice will thaw Dm C F And frozen parts will be filled with song Gm F A And the sun filtered down through all them waves Gm A And they said... Dm They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed A Yes, being here is seeming to be the way Dm F Bb Being here is like breathing on the hottest day Gm A I think I would rather suffocate Gm A Gm A Dm C F Last summer they said it was so, so hot Gm F A Two lovers did drown, their dreams were sunk Dm C F While their bodies were lost, their souls stayed around Gm A They stayed underwater; most go underground. Gm A And they said... Dm They said being here is better than wishing we'd stayed A Yes, being here is seeming to be the way (x3) Dm F Bb A Oh, being here is better than wishing, wishing, wishing we had stayed Dm A Dm F Dm Bbm Gm A Gm A Dm
