I See Dark by Laura Stevenson and the Cans


Capo 2nd fret


Part A: 

G
Cuffed to the bed next to my head
C
 Swallow the key up, swallow the key.
G                            C
 You've been swallowing everything
        Am      Em          C
Lock me up in a room with a strange one. 

G
Take this, go on take it and you'll 
C
 see your ache will soon break
G                        C
Do this in memory of what  you used to be
         Am        Em     C
But that lump on a cot in a dark room, 
          Am    Em  C
takes her time      wasting away
         Am        Em         C
Trapped inside of a body that hates her
          Am        Em         C
Take your time and then someone will take you...



Part B: (1:09)(from live version but the chords are the same)
(Im sure you can figure out the strumming)
   Em                             C                                     x2

   Am           Em             C                                     x2





Part C: (2:05)(not exact strumming pattern)
   C                                       G 

   C                                      Em       G                  *

(G*)                C
We'll lay with the lights out
                 Em                         C
I'll lie if you want me to, but I will lie next to you
            G
I can hear them too, I can hear them too
 C   (4 measures)       Em (4 measures)

 C   (4 measures)       Cmaj7 


End Part:
   Csus2                            Cmaj7


Small Lead Guitar Part: (2:34) (NOT relative to the capo) 





Its a pretty straight forward song. 
Im not 100 percent sure about the lead guitar part but I just really like when that part comes in.
This is one of my favorite Laura Stevenson songs and 
I hope this is helpful to anyone who wants to learn it
