Original key- Capo 2       (all chord forms relative to capo)    


Verse 1

G       Bm
You walk out onstage and sing folks your song
A       Bm
You make them all smile what could go wrong?
G       Bm
But soon you discover the job takes its toll
Em
And everyone?s wanting a piece of your soul

G   D  A  D  Em  D  A

Verse 2

G               Bm
You sit by the river, wondering what you got wrong,
A       Bm
How many chances you?ve missed all along.
G       Bm
Like your troubles had somehow turned you to stone
Em      A
And the water was whispering, why don?t you come home?

Chorus
G       D       A
When life is too much, just remember
G       D       A
When you?re down on your luck, just remember,
G       D       Bm      A
I?m as close as a shadow, wherever you go,
G       D    Bm A
As bad as things get, you?ve got to know,
G       A
That I?m with you? always with you.
G
Your shadow.
 
G   D  A  D  Em  D  A

Verse 3

G       Bm
One night there?s a call, and at first you don?t know
A       Bm
What the troopers are saying from the side of the road,
G       Bm
Then you see in an instant that your whole life has changed.
Em      A
Everything gone, all the plans rearranged

Chorus 

G   D  A  D  Em  D  A

Verse 4

G               A       D
You can?t keep down smiles; happiness floats.
Bm      Em
But trouble can find us in the heart of our homes.
G       A       D
Life never seems to go quite right,
D       A
You can?t watch your back from morning to night

Chorus x2
