[Verse 1]

Dm Bb C
I am a man who walks alone,
Bb C Dm
and when I’m walking a dark road
Bb C Bb C Dm
at night or strolling through the park
Dm Bb C
When the lights begin to change,
Bb C Dm
I sometimes feel a little strange
Bb C
a little anxious when it’s dark

[Chorus]

Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a constant fear that something’s always near
Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a phobia that someone’s always there

[Verse 2]

Dm Bb C
Have you run your fingers down the wall
Bb C Dm
And have you felt your neck skin crawl
Bb C Bb C Dm
When you’re searching for the light
Dm Bb C
Sometimes when you’re scared to take a look
Bb C Dm
At the corner of the room
Bb C
You’ve sensed that something’s watching you

[Chorus]

Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a constant fear that something’s always near
Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a phobia that someone’s always there

[Verse 3]

Dm Bb C
Have you ever been alone at night
Bb C Dm
Thought you heard footsteps behind
Bb C Bb C Dm
And turned around and no one’s there?
Dm Bb C
And as you quicken up your pace
Bb C Dm
You find it hard to look again
Bb C
Because you’re sure there’s someone there

[Chorus]

Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a constant fear that something’s always near
Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a phobia that someone’s always there

[Verse 4]

Dm Bb C
Watching horror films the night before
Bb C Dm
Debating witches and folklore
Bb C Bb C Dm
The unknown troubles on your mind
Dm Bb C
Maybe your mind is playing tricks
Bb C Dm
You sense, and suddenly eyes fix
Bb C
On dancing shadows from behind

[Chorus]

Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a constant fear that something’s always near
Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a phobia that someone’s always there

Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a constant fear that something’s always near
Bb C Dm C
Fear of the dark, Fear of the dark,
Bb F C Dm
I have a phobia that someone’s always there

[Outro]

Dm Bb C
When I’m walking a dark road
Bb C Dm
I am the man who walks alone
