G#m             C#       F#       D#m
You've got your reasons, I've got mine
G#m           C#                F#        D#m
Just like the seasons, they'll change in time
B               C#           A#m        D#m
Don't let that stop you from saying goodbye
     B  C#
Goodbye

Chorus:
F#        A#m   D#m          A#m
Open your eyes, turn out the light
B          G#           C#
Don't be afraid of the dark
         F#             A#m
Some you lose, some you win
        D#m            A#m
But the bluebirds they sing
B          G#           C#
Don't be afraid of the dark

When you go sailing, take good care
I know that you'll find what you need out there
Even the bravest of hearts, they get scared
They get scared

Chorus:
You just open your eyes, turn out the light
Don't be afraid of the dark
Some you lose, some you win
But the bluebirds they sing
Don't be afraid of the dark

My love
My love
