D                        F#m
  Lightning hit the house that I thought was safe
A                     E
  Now I’m buried deep in my mind, no escape
D                   F#m
  It’s uncomfortable to take another turn
A                       E
  But I’m better off now


[Chorus]
              D            F#m             A         D
Even the stars need the dark (need the dark) to shine
  D                               F#m      A               D
I don’t need you to tell me it’ll be okay, I’m no stranger to the pain
            D               F#m                      A               D
I don’t mind rollin’ in the mud while it rains if it helps me to grow
                 D                  F#m
Bring on the dark, bring on the hate
                 A
Bring on the pain
                  D
Yeah, I’ll be okay
                     D            F#m             A         D
‘Cause even the stars need the dark (need the dark) to shine


[Verse 2]
D                   F#m
  My eyes are blurry, the tide is coming in
A                          E
  I guess I’ll find out now if I can swim,
D                      F#m
  Sometimes I feel like a stranger in my skin
A                         E
  Strangers, still I’m not


[Chorus]
              D            F#m             A         D
Even the stars need the dark (need the dark) to shine
  D                               F#m      A               D
I don’t need you to tell me it’ll be okay, I’m no stranger to the pain
            D               F#m                      A               D
I don’t mind rollin’ in the mud while it rains if it helps me to grow
                 D                  F#m
Bring on the dark, bring on the hate
                 A
Bring on the pain
                  D
Yeah, I’ll be okay
                     D            F#m             A         D
‘Cause even the stars need the dark (need the dark) to shine
