C#m                A
Here we are at the end of the road
E                    B
A road that's quietly caving in (caving in)
C#m            A
Come to far to pretend that we don't 
         E             B
We don't miss where we started (started)


[Pre chorus:]
C#m            A
Looking back I see a setting sun
E                             B
Watch my shadow fade into the floor (floor)
C#m        A
I am left standing on the edge
E                         B                      A
Wondering how we got this far (how we got this far)


[Chorus:]
             C#m
They left us alone
                A
The kids in the dark
            E                        B
To burn out forever or light out the spark
        C#m                   A
We come together state of the art
            E
We’ll never surrender 
                B
The kids in the dark so let the world sing
C#m          A
What a shame what a shame
E                  B
Beautiful scars on critical veins
C#m                           A
We come together state of the art
            E                          
We’ll never surrender     
                B            
The kids in the dark The kids in the dark


[Instrumental:]
C#m A E B 


[Verse 2:]
C#m                A
Here we are at the top of the hill
  E                   B
A hill that's quietly crumbling 
C#m                    A
Been a while since you dressed for the kill
    E                 B
The kill that sent me tumbling


[Pre chorus:]
C#m          A
Looking up I see a falling star
    E                            B
And watch its fire burn into the floor
C#m           A
And I am left standing on the edge
E                        B                       
Wondering why we fall so hard (why we fall so hard)


[Chorus:]
             C#m
They left us alone
                A
The kids in the dark
            E                        B
To burn out forever or light out the spark
        C#m                   A
We come together state of the art
            E
We’ll never surrender 
                B
The kids in the dark so let the world sing
C#m          A
What a shame what a shame
E                  B
Beautiful scars on critical veins
C#m                           A
We come together state of the art
            E                          
We’ll never surrender     
                B            
The kids in the dark The kids in the dark


[Bridge:]
A          C#m    E         B
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Whoooooooooo (Kids in the dark) 
A          C#m    E         B                  A
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Whoooooooooo (Kids in the dark) 


[Chorus:]
             C#m
They left us alone
                A
The kids in the dark
            E                        B
To burn out forever or light out the spark
        C#m                   A
We come together state of the art
            E
We’ll never surrender 
                B
The kids in the dark so let the world sing
C#m          A
What a shame what a shame
E                  B
Beautiful scars on critical veins
C#m                           A
We come together state of the art
            E                          
We’ll never surrender     
                B            
The kids in the dark The kids in the dark
