Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Once upon a time, I was of the mind
To lay your burden down
Leave you where you stood, You believed I could
You'd seen it done before
I could read your thoughts, and tell you what you saw
And never say a word
But now all that is gone, over with and done
Never to return
And I can tell you why
people die alone
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun
Staring at the loss. Looking for the cause
And never really sure
Nothing but a hole to live without a soul
And nothing to be learned
And I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
And I can tell you why
people die alone
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun
|| E D Bm | Bm || 4x (same accentuation as in the Refrain)
Shapes of every size move behind my eyes
Doors inside my head bolted from within
Every drop of flame lights a candle in
Memory of the one who lived inside my skin
And I can tell you why
People go insane
I can show you how
You could do the same
And I can tell you why
people die alone
I can tell you I'm
A shadow on the sun
