Another One In The Dark
        (words & music by Jakob Dylan)


I have grossly misinterpreted the lyrics as you will soon see.  If anyone has
any idea on some of the lyrical mumbling, can you please email me.  Anyway:

CAPO ON THE 2ND FRET (or play each chord a whole step up-I highly recommend  
        
                      capoing, though):

Another thing is that the Bm riff is just Bm played staccato eight times, if
you know the song, you will know what I am talking about.  The reason why it
does not sound like the Bm chord playing over and over is because the 
bassline walks up the C# minor scale.  (Remember when you play Bm with a capo
on the second fret, you are really playing C#m).  Okay:


Intro: D   G   D   G   D   G   D   G

D                              G
Took em high, took em straight up the hill
D                          G
You wanted it all, gave em such a pill
D                       G
Their parades, we stole every thrill
D                       G
In their games, we made every kill

D   Daug   D6   G

D                     G
Took em hard, took em up against the wall
D                        G
In their loss, you never let them fall
D                          G
In their flames, sailed up to the moon
D                            G
In their rain, they dry like firewood
       D            Daug
So the bottom, five beers
       D6                   G
As the girl might just disappear
                      D
Well that will be the death of me
                     A
The day she~s just a memory

Bm   Bm-A-G   Bm   Bm-A-G

         Bm riff
Well she turned off the lights and she opened the whites
      G                        D
In my eyes, another one in the dark
F#m         Bm
Broken all apart
      A                 G
Just another one in the dark

A   Aaug

         D                     G
When the road rolled on like a big drum
     D                      G
Went to the top just to bud everyone
D                                                    G
Wanted to win, tie yourself with a string, and steal everything
            D                          G
You took em skin on skin, laid em down in the rain
     D             Daug
So I swear we~re a pair
     D6               G
Like loneliness and a prayer
       D                          A
No I~m not the be, may still mean me

Bm   Bm-A-G   Bm   Bm-A-G

         Bm riff
Well she turned off the lights and she opened the whites
      G                        D
In my eyes, another one in the dark
F#m             Bm
Broken from the start
      A                 G
Just another one in the dark

A   Aaug

D   G   D   G   D   G   D   G

         D                          G
In their nights, rayed out with the loud screen
   D                               G
Or in their sleep, we~re all inside every dream
          D         Daug
So if you trying to break me
  D6                 G
C~mon, why don~t you shake me
                D
Right out of my dream
                     A
The one that you and me, me...

Bm   Bm-A-G   Bm   Bm-A-G
Woooaahhh...  Heeyyyy.....

         Bm riff
Well she sang out of tune when she shot down the moon
     G
As I saw my arteries down on dividers
          Bm riff
And I was here at the Hoot, between the cup and the loot
     G
As I strut down under the lightening love
       Bm riff
As she cut all the strings that I tied to her wings
        G             D
Leaving me...  in the dark
F#m            Bm
Still just be apart
        A               G
And she never see me at all

A   Aaug

D   G   D   G...
