Intro: B Ebm A E Em

Verse 1:
  B
I feel just like a astronaut about to float away
            Ebm
Oh, I don't have much ground beneath

But if you asked, then I would stay
             A
You know I'm hangin' on by a thread, starin' down forever
        E                             Em
I don't know about tomorrow, but one day I'll be untethered and

Pre-chorus:
B
I could stay, go through all the motions
Ebm
Never say, "I don't want your devotion"
A                                          E
I'm afraid you're gonna turn the light off when you leave
Em
If you leave

Chorus:
Eb         E             B
'Cause I'm scared of the dark

What made that noise? Was it a ghost? (No)

Honey, you can see, honey, you can see there's somethin' missin'

'Cause I'm only ever honest in my dreams
