"Audioslave" - "Shadow On The Sun"


Intro: || Bm | A | Bm | A ||

Bm                A
Once upon a time, I was of the mind
   Bm               A
To lay your burden down
Bm                          A
Leave you where you stood, You believed I could
       Bm             A
You'd seen it done before
Bm                               A
I could read your thoughts, and tell you what you saw
     Bm          A
And never say a word
     Bm                   A
But now all that is gone, over with and done
 Bm         A
Never to return

    E  D   Bm
And I can tell you why
 E      D  Bm
people die alone
E  D   Bm
I can tell you I'm
   E     D       A
A shadow on the sun

|| Bm | A | Bm | A ||

 Bm                   A
Staring at the loss. Looking for the cause
     Bm           A
And never really sure
 Bm                    A
Nothing but a hole to live without a soul
     Bm            A
And nothing to be learned

    E  D   Bm
And I can tell you why
 E     D  Bm
People go insane
E  D   Bm
I can show you how
E          D      E
You could do the same
    E  D   Bm
And I can tell you why
 E      D  Bm
people die alone
E  D   Bm
I can tell you I'm
   E     D       A
A shadow on the sun

|| Bm | A | D | A |
 | Bm | A | D | E ||

|| E D Bm | Bm || 4x    (same accentuation as in the Refrain)

Bm               A    D              A
Shapes of every size move behind my eyes
Bm               A    D             A
Doors inside my head bolted from within
Bm              A    D              A
Every drop of flame lights a candle in
Bm             A       D                E
Memory of the one who lived inside my skin

    E  D   Bm
And I can tell you why
 E     D  Bm
People go insane
E  D   Bm
I can show you how
E          D      E
You could do the same
    E  D   Bm
And I can tell you why
 E      D  Bm
people die alone
E  D   Bm
I can tell you I'm
   E     D       Bm
A shadow on the sun
