Dm            C 
Fate lies ahead 
               Bb        A 
Like the sun will rise 
          Dm                     C 
The light has been gone 
             Bb                       A 
far too long from your eyes 
         Dm               C                       Bb           
     A 
But you never changed, never played your part 
         Dn                 C                  Bb                     A 
And you have erased all the fear from your heart 
A                         A(fast changing to Dm) 
And tried to forget 
 
Dm  F                      C                  A       
 Bb 
The light in your eyes keeps fading out 
                                   A                   Dm 
The night's falling deeper in the heart 
 F                  C                A            Bb 
Hiding the truth and crashing down 
                          A                 Dm 
My baby's a dancer in the dark 
 
You've seen it all 
You don't mind going blind 
You've seen it all 
All the wonders of life 
Run to your boy, don't conceal your scars 
Run to your boy; let him feel your love 
Before it's too late 
 
Dm  F                      C                  A       
 Bb 
The light in your eyes keeps fading out 
                                   A                   Dm 
The night's falling deeper in the heart 
 F                  C                A            Bb 
Hiding the truth and crashing down 
                          A                 A 
My baby's a dancer in the dark 
 
Bb                                               A                      
    Dm                     (A) 
Your sight is dying but you keep on trying to save your boy 
Bb                                               A                      
     Dm                  (A) 
You keep on lying but your false illusions will be destroyed

                 Dm                      (A) 
You heard it calling but you turned your face, never played your part 
Bb                                                    A                 
           Dm            A 
You heard it singing but you danced away like a falling star 
 
A          Dm              A 
Dancer in the dark 
              Dm             A 
Dancer in the dark

Dancer in the dark
