[Verse 1]
E                           G
Hands cover whispers of the lovers' fright
E                               G
Fear-cloaked renditions of that autumn night
E                         G
Digging up rumours of the kids in the park
E                                 G
What awful things happened in the dark?


[Chorus]
E
Take
     Bm
Just one last dare
   A
Pretend you don't care
     C        D
'Til twilight falls

E
Wait
        D
There's someone else here
     C
And I can't stop my tears
     G             D
I've never been so scared

[Verse 2]
E                    G
In the cellar buried six feet deep
E                         G
The lover's shaken from a dreamless sleep
E                                G
Nails clawing splinters from the ceiling and floor
E                                   G
Shrieking like the witches 'til his stitches are sore


[Chorus]
E
Take
     Bm
Just one last dare
   A
Pretend you don't care
     C        D
'Til twilight falls

E
Wait
        D
There's someone else here
     C
And I can't stop my tears
     G             D
I've never been so scared


[Bridge]
E                      G                 D#
Calling for the other, searching for her lover
E                     A#                D
Secrets she discovers drain her face of colour

E              G              D#
1 - 2 - 3 - 4, underneath the cellar floor
E              A#         D
5 - 6 - 7 - 8, lover will suffocate


E              G              D#
1 - 2 - 3 - 4, underneath the cellar floor
E              A#         D
5 - 6 - 7 - 8, lover will suffocate


E              G              D#
1 - 2 - 3 - 4, underneath the cellar floor
E              A#         D
5 - 6 - 7 - 8, lover will suffocate


E              G              D#
1 - 2 - 3 - 4, underneath the cellar floor
E              A#         D
5 - 6 - 7 - 8, lover will suffocate
