 B7th* 2 2 x 2 x x
 The room  filled with the stain  of a hundred  cigarettes
 Sober  through the haze,  just  one silhouette
 Fumble  with the keys  in the door
 But dont turn the light  on
 Dont turn the light  on
We  dont need to wait  for our eyes  to adjust
 Yeah, we  can see it all  by the time  we touch
 The streetlight  through the shutters  may be all  we need
 Cause the more  the room goes dark,  the more of you  I see
 Dim lit,  the room black,  we can keep  those candles out
Shapes,  we paint a map,  where this  is going now
 A novel  with the words  I wanna say
 But dont turn the light  on
 Dont turn the light  on
We  dont need to wait  for our eyes  to adjust
 Yeah, we  can see it all  by the time  we touch
 The streetlight  through the shutters  may be all  we need
 Cause the more  the room goes dark,  the more of you  I see
Sun  breaks cracks  in closed blinds
 B7th*
 We never once close our eyes
We  dont need to wait  for our eyes  to adjust
 Yeah, we  can see it all  by the time  we touch
 The streetlight  through the shutters  may be all  we need
 Cause the more  the room goes dark,  the more of you  I see
 The more  I see
 Yeah, the more  I see
 In the Dark,  in the night,  dim lit  and closed eyes
 In the black,  when we touch,  streetlight’s more  than enough
 The more  I see
 Yeah, the more  I see
