! Capo 2st fret !


A5 (let it ring)                                        F5  (---)        
Oh the streets bleeding out for a real dream that's not filled with 
unmarked bills
A5 (---)                                                          F5 (---)
When the moon turns its back to let off steam you're faced with a cold chill
A5 (---)                                                F5 (---)
There's a bird at the window, smoke in its eye, singing off key
A5 (---)  F5 (---)            C5 (---)                      F5 (---)           
There's a wounded girl with her heart shaped shoe in the shadows

In the shadows
A5 (---)
In the shadows 
F5 (---)
of the city

A5 (now played)                                             F5    
Well the trains are half empty with faces that try to break off their chains
A5                                               F5
Bound by the sound of the screaming dawn that is all their name
A5                                                           F5
there?s a madman throwing stones at the streetlight coming through a torn out shade
A5        F5              C5               F5
there?s a small river by the fallen tree in the shadows

In the shadows
A5
In the shadows
F5
of the city

A5                                                                     F5
you can feel the air breathing down your neck like a ghost standing by your side
A5                                                         F5
flashing white teeth by the silent road he?s looking for a place to hide
A5                                                           F5
rain cold woman with a knife in her hand and a shovel on the grassy ground
A5           F5           C5                 F5
catch a left eye you can hear the sound of the shadows


in the shadows
A5 
in the shadows
F5
of the city
A5
in the shadows
F5
of the city
