The day is almost over and the sunlight is going
              Eb
And the people walk through shadows completely unknowing
                     Bb                                                            F
That there's something lethal in the air that they can't see.

Now a Time Lord could save me just by turning on a light
                   Eb
Although I don't think that the Doctor's gonna show up tonight
              Bb                                                             F
So I'm trying to remember what the Library said to me.

          F                                  Eb
Gotta focus on all the silhouettes that you can see
                    Bb                                                          F
'Cause if the number keeps on changing then you're no use to me.

                       F
So count the shadows,
                     Eb
Count the shadows,
                      Bb
Cause they're edging toward you
                                        F
Like a hungry moth to a flame

Count the shadows,

Count the shadows,

Then you're the victim that they will claim.

In the Library the darkness is waiting to attack,
              Eb
Some explorers went inside but they ain't never comin' back,
             Bb                                                                  F
Namely Miss Evangelista, Anita, and two guys called Dave.
              F
And the shadows made four thousand other people disappear
                            Eb
And they've been hungry and waiting for a whole damn year
               Bb                                                           F
For some fresh meat that isn't gonna register as saved.

A thousand thousand million piranhas in the air.

And the tingle on your skin that you feel in the dark
