How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Originally titled Wouldn’t You Miss Me, from its most impassioned lyric, Dark Globe was of the very last songs Syd Barrett wrote as his solo debut, The Madcap Laughs neared completion. He introduced it to the proceedings during the penultimate sessions of June 13/14 1969 and required just two takes to nail the song down – compare that with the eleven or so stabs he made at Golden Hair.
