F
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.
F
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
F
Count the shadows,
Eb
Count the shadows,
Bb
Cause if you've got more than one
F
Then you're the victim that they will claim.
F
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.
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 Eb Bb F (2x)
F
Invisible carnivorous aggressive armada
Eb
And they go by the name of the Vashta Nerada,
Bb F
A thousand thousand million piranhas in the air.
F
And the tingle on your skin that you feel in the dark
Eb
Might be the hungry ones who contemplate leaving a mark
Bb F
So when you're reaching for the light switch make sure you're prepared.
