F
The day is almost over and the sunlight is going
Eb
And the people walk through shadows completely unknowing
BbF
That there's something lethal in the air that they can't see.
F
Now a Time Lord could save me just by turning on a light
Eb
Although I don't think that the Doctor's gonna show up tonight
BbF
So I'm trying to remember what the Library said to me.
FEb
Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see
BbF
'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me.
F
So count the shadows,
Eb
Count the shadows,
Bb
Cause they're edging toward you
F
Like a hungry moth to a flame
F
Count the shadows,
Eb
Count the shadows,
Bb
Cause if you've got more than one
F
Then you're the victim that they will claim.
F
In the Library the darkness is waiting to attack,
Eb
Some explorers went inside but they ain't never comin' back,
BbF
Namely Miss Evangelista, Anita, and two guys called Dave.
F
And the shadows made four thousand other people disappear
Eb
And they've been hungry and waiting for a whole damn year
BbF
For some fresh meat that isn't gonna register as saved.
FEb
Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see
BbF
'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me.

F-Eb-Bb-F x2
F
Invisible carnivorous aggressive armada
Eb
And they go by the name of the Vashta Nerada,
BbF
A thousand thousand million piranhas in the air.
F
And the tingle on your skin that you feel in the dark
Eb
Might be the hungry ones who contemplate leaving a mark
BbF
So when you're reaching for the light switch make sure you're prepared.
