Subject: ANOTHER ONE IN THE DARK by The Wallflowers
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
DG
Took em high, took em straight up the hill
DG
You wanted it all, gave em such a pill
DG
Their parades, we stole every thrill
DG
In their games, we made every kill
D Daug D6 G
DG
Took em hard, took em up against the wall
DG
In their loss, you never let them fall
DG
In their flames, sailed up to the moon
DG
In their rain, they dry like firewood
D Daug
So the bottom, five beers
D6G
As the girl might just disappear
D
Well that will be the death of me
A
The day she~s just a memory
BBBBm-A-G
Bm riff
Well she turned off the lights and she opened the whites
GD
In my eyes, another one in the dark
F#mBm
Broken all apart
AG
Just another one in the dark
A Aaug
DG
When the road rolled on like a big drum
DG
Went to the top just to bud everyone
DG
Wanted to win, tie yourself with a string, and steal everything
DG
You took em skin on skin, laid em down in the rain
D Daug
So I swear we~re a pair
D6G
Like loneliness and a prayer
DA
No I~m not the be, may still mean me
BBBBm-A-G
Bm riff
Well she turned off the lights and she opened the whites
GD
In my eyes, another one in the dark
F#mBm
Broken from the start
AG
Just another one in the dark
A Aaug
DGDGDGDGDG
In their nights, rayed out with the loud screen
DG
Or in their sleep, we~re all inside every dream
D Daug
So if you trying to break me
D6G
C~mon, why don~t you shake me
D
Right out of my dream
A
The one that you and me, me...
BmBm-A-GBmBm-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
GD
Leaving me... in the dark
F#mBm
Still just be apart
AG
And she never see me at all
A Aaug
D G D G...
