Intro: Bm  A  Bm  A  

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

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

E D   Bm 
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 
I can tell you why 
    E        D     Bm 
The end will never come 
E D   Bm 
I can tell you I'm 
E        D      A 
A shadow on the sun

Bm              A      
Shapes of every size 
D              A 
Move behind my eyes 
Bm              A 
Doors inside my head 
D             A 
Bolted from within 
Bm            A 
Every drop of flame 
D               A 
Lights a candle in 
Bm            A 
Memory of the one 
D                   A 
Who lives inside my skin 

E D   Bm
