Monsters In The Dark

Db      Fm
Hold me higher
Ab
Hold me high
Db      Fm
Hold me higher
Ab
Hold me high


[Verse 1]
                          Db
There are monsters in the dark
          Fm
I like to find them on my own and 
then
Ab
We said, we said, last words over 
the phone
            Db                    
We rode the interstate, while she 
Fm
would drive I'd narrate
Ab
Singing our old songs from back home


[Pre-Chorus]
Db
Come on, come on that's it now
Fm
Pick up we're gonna hit the town
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
      Db
We're not gonna stick around
Fm
Better put on your dancing gown
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)

[Chorus]
                          Db     
There are monsters in the dark
Fm  Ab

                          Db
They're not gonna keep us apart
         Fm      Ab
(Hold me higher, hold me high)
                           Db
I'll search with all of my heart
         Fm      Ab
(Hold me higher, hold me high)
Ab                             Db
There are monsters in the dark


[Verse 2]
             Fm
And a single step is all it takes
     Ab
Over oceans, all emotions, I feel 
trapped under the weight
           Fm
Can't keep my head above water long 
enough to say
       Ab
That I love and miss you dearly more
 and more after each day
               Db
(What's in the dark?)
               Fm
And I start to feel like one of them
       Ab
I keep waking up beside her, every 
time a different bed
      Db               Fm
Woken by strangers, no word from 
friends
     Ab
Well maybe there's some evil ones 
just haven't found them yet


[Pre-Chorus]
Db
Come on, come on that's it now
Fm
Pick up we're gonna hit the town
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
Db
We're not gonna stick around
Fm
Better put on your dancing gown
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
Ab
Come on, come on (whoa)
