Within Temptation – A Shot In The Dark chords

[Intro]

| Em   | Em   | C    | D

 

[Verse 1]

          Em

I've been left out alone like a damn criminal

            C

I've been praying for help cause I can't take it all

         D             Am

I'm not done, it's not over

 

         Em

Now I'm fighting this war since the day of the fall

         C

And I'm desperately holding on to it all

         D           Am

But I'm lost, I'm so damn lost

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

      D           C

Oh, I wish it was over

      D              Em

And I wish you were here

          D            C      D

Still I'm hoping that somehow

 

 

[Chorus]

                       Em                  D

Cause your soul is on fire, a shot in the dark

               Bm                             C

What did they aim for when they missed your heart

  D             Em                    D

I breathe underwater, it's all in my hands

           Bm                      C

What can I do, don't let it fall apart

 

 

[Hook]

  D            Em      D

A shot in the dark

               Bm      C   D

A shot in the dark

 

 

[Verse 2]

         Em

In the blink of an eye, I can see through your eyes

        C

As I'm lying awake I'm still hearing the cries

        D              Am

And it hurts, hurts me so bad

 

         Em

And I'm wondering why I still fight in this life

            C

Cause I've lost all my faith in this damn bitter strife

          D           Am

And it's sad, it's so damn sad

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

                  C

Oh, I wish it was over

      D              Em

And I wish you were here

          D            C      B

Still I'm hoping that somehow

 

 

[Chorus]

                       Em                  D

Cause your soul is on fire, a shot in the dark

               Bm                             C

What did they aim for when they missed your heart

  D             Em                    D

I breathe underwater, it's all in my hands

           Bm                      C

What can I do, don't let it fall apart

A shot in the dark

  D            Em

A shot in the dark

 

 

[Bridge]

  C        D

I feel you

         Em

fading away

  C        D

I feel you

         Em

fading away

  C        D

I feel you

         Em

fading away

  C        D

I feel you

         Em

fading away
