[A] [F#m] [A] [E]
[A]If I ascend [F#m]Heavens You’re there
If I [A]make my bed in [E]Sheol You’re with me
[A]If I arise on the [F#m]wings of the dawn


If I [A]sink in the sea there Your [E]hand will find me
[D]Ooh, [F#m]there is no [A]deepest depths, [E]highest heights
[D]With [F#m]You, even the [A]dark is light, [E]dark is light


Dead of Night [A]in the silence, In the [C#m]darkest hour
When you can [E]barely whisper, and there’s no [D]place to hide


[A]Every ocean is just a [C#m]drop of water
Every [E]desert a footstep, there’s no [D]space too wide


[F#m]When you cry, when you fall, when you hurt I’ll be with you
[A]Through it all in your tears and your fears don’t you worry
[C#m]I am near, I am here, I’ll be there
With you in the [F#m]dead of night, dead of night, dead of night, dead of night


You can [E]stand on my [D]shoulders, in the [E]valley of the [D]shadows


[A] [A] [D] [F#m]
[A]Through the struggle, I am [C#m]fighting for you
Feel my [E]heartbeat racing, I’m here [D]by your side


You can [E]stand on my [D]shoulders
I will [E]hold you here in the [D]dead of night, dead of night, dead of night
