Tuck The Darkness In Uke tab by Bowerbirds

Intro

G Am Em Am D



[Verse 1]

Em              

Well, the light was rust,

         C                 Em

and the cold was in our knees,

        Em                     C        G

and our breath poured out over golden fields

        Em         

Though I could not know then,

              C              G

we'd have but few times like these,

             Em                D

with all the good smoke in between



[Instrumental]

G Am Em   Am D



[Verse 2]

Em

Tucked the darkness in,

            C                  Em

dragged the harrow across the land,

         

found my fresh start,

         C         G

sowed my wildest dreams


Though I could not know then,

      C           G

I was well in the weeds,

          Em                D

a tangled mess, whatever could come next



[Instrumental]

G Am Em  Am B C 



[Verse 3]

 B                          Am

before the hours took over,

            G                           C

before the full weight was on our shoulders,

            B          Am

before the twilight's cover,

           Em       G            C         

before I knew time was such a swindler

D

Ohhh

       G

Oh my dear friend,

            C       G

everything falls to death

            Em

We tuck the darkness in,

              D        
 
we tuck the darkness in

       G

Oh my dear friend,

           C        G

everything falls to death

            Em      

We tuck the darkness in,

            D         

we tuck the darkness in

we tuck the darkness in

Oh my dear friend,

everything falls to death

we tuck the darkness in
