[Verse 1]
C
Had some pretty dark days
                                               G      C
What a flower grows in shade and I'd say I'm doin' alright
           C
Treatin' myself better, doin' things I said I'd never
                  G        C
And I'm sleepin' good at night

[Verse 2]
C
Spent the cold days in winter watchin woods turn to ember
                       G         C
Got tired of feelin' sorry for myself
        C
Drag myself out of bed, slay the demons in my head
 G                 C
Sent them back to hell

[Chorus]
          Am    C/B      C
Cause the dark days are done
    Am      C/B     C
The battles over, I won
             Am     C/B     C
And now I'm baskin' in the sun
             Am   C/B      C
Because the dark days are done

[Verse 3]
              C
And now them girls that were cool. They rejected me in school
                 G      C
Now they're all having kids
         C
I'm the same fuckin' guy you turned down in '09
           G         C
But now my t-shirts fit

[Chorus]
          Am    C/B      C
Cause the dark days are done
    Am      C/B     C
The battles over, I won
             Am     C/B     C
And now I'm baskin' in the sun
             Am   C/B      C
Because my dark days are done

[Verse 4]
       C
And I know it gets heavy. You just gotta stay steady
                   G            C
You'll get to the top of that climb
       C
And I swear it will end. I'm tellin' you, friend
                 G       C
It just takes a little time

[Chorus]
           Am    C/B      C
Cause your dark days will end
      Am    C/B      C
I'm tellin' you, my friend
               Am    C/B         C
And you'll be feelin' that warm wind
            Am   C/B   C
After your dark days end
