Tom: Db Db Fm Hold me higher Ab Hold me high Db Fm Hold me higher Ab Hold me high [Verse 1] Db There are monsters in the dark Fm I like to find them on my own and then Ab We said, we said, last words over the phone Db Fm We rode the interstate, while she would drive I'd narrate Ab Singing our old songs from back home [Pre-Chorus] Db Come on, come on that's it now Fm Pick up we're gonna hit the town Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Db We're not gonna stick around Fm Better put on your dancing gown Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Fm Ab [Chorus] Db Fm Ab There are monsters in the dark Db They're not gonna keep us apart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Db I'll search with all of my heart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Ab Db There are monsters in the dark [Verse 2] Fm And a single step is all it takes Ab Over oceans, all emotions, I feel trapped under the weight Fm Can't keep my head above water long enough to say Ab That I love and miss you dearly more and more after each day Db (What's in the dark?) Fm And I start to feel like one of them Ab I keep waking up beside her, every time a different bed Db Fm Woken by strangers, no word from friends Ab Well maybe there's some evil ones just haven't found them yet [Pre-Chorus] Db Come on, come on that's it now Fm Pick up we're gonna hit the town Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Db We're not gonna stick around Fm Better put on your dancing gown Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Come on, come on (whoa) Ab Fm Ab [Chorus] Db Fm Ab There are monsters in the dark Db They're not gonna keep us apart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Db I'll search with all of my heart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Db They're not gonna keep us apart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Db I'll search with all of my heart Fm Ab (Hold me higher, hold me high) Db There are monsters in the dark
