[Verse 1]
B5                           A5
   I asked my neighbour what time is it
B5                   A5    B5     C5    D5
   Time you know you can't get it back
B5              A5
   What's a man anyhow
B5              A5 B5 C5
   If not alone collecting facts
B5                        A5
   Well I am love through sickness
B5               A5  B5 C5        C
   Today I'm courage at the track

G                   D
   It's so peaceful here
C
   No one to fuck it up
G                       D
   I could lay here for hours and hours
C
   Not asking for much

B5                            A5                            B5 C5 D5
   Married to the sunshine in my mind, I was floating away
B5                   A5              A7 (no3)
   I can see all the flowers in full bloom
B5                C5
   I wish I could last and stay

[Chorus 1]
G         D               C
   We're living in the darkest hour

[Verse 2]
G                         D                    C
   I am the fortress at Nazaré above the raging sound
B5                     A5                                 B5 C5
   Somebody came by to say hi and we washed the day down

G                            D                        C
   Missed the end of the world, and that was just fine
G                           D                            C
   Saw my family for the holidays and we had a good time
G                        D                      C
   I am the gentle days' end after all that noise
G                         D                        C
   I'm the bull that stood and stared after the cavalry arrived

B5                 C5      D5
   I'm the perfume memory
B5                A5
   Sweetness in her smile
B5                      C5    D5
   I could lay here for hours
B5                        A5    A7 (no3)
   I could lay here for a while

B5                           C5         D5
   I asked my neighbour what time is it
B5                                A5
   Time you know you can't get it back
B5              A5 B5 C5                    D5
   Why're we all   so miserable? Oh, that's right!
B5             C5    A5
   Nobody ever comes back

G                         D
   Well I am love through sickness
C
   Today I'm courage at the track
G                    D
   I'm the hand that feeds you
C                               G
   I'm the hallowed road back home

[Chorus 2]
           D                C
   (We're living in the darkest hour)
G          D                C
   We're living in the darkest hour
G          D                C
   We're living in the darkest hour

[Outro]
G                   D                          C
   It's so peaceful here, no one to fuck it up
G                       D           C
   I could see through miles, miles
