"Audioslave" - "Shadow On The Sun"
Intro: || Bm | A | Bm | A ||
[Bm]Once upon a time, [A]I was of the mind
To [Bm]lay your burden d[A]own
[Bm]Leave you where you stood, Y[A]ou believed I could
You'd s[Bm]een it done bef[A]ore
[Bm]I could read your thoughts, and t[A]ell you what you saw
And n[Bm]ever say a w[A]ord
But n[Bm]ow all that is gone, [A]over with and done
N[Bm]ever to ret[A]urn
And [E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you why
p[E]eople d[D]ie [Bm]alone
[E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you I'm
A s[E]hadow [D]on the s[A]un
|| Bm | A | Bm | A ||
S[Bm]taring at the loss. L[A]ooking for the cause
And n[Bm]ever really s[A]ure
N[Bm]othing but a hole to l[A]ive without a soul
And n[Bm]othing to be l[A]earned
And [E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you why
P[E]eople [D]go [Bm]insane
[E]I c[D]an s[Bm]how you how
[E]You could d[D]o the s[E]ame
And [E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you why
p[E]eople d[D]ie [Bm]alone
[E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you I'm
A s[E]hadow [D]on the s[A]un
|| Bm | A | D | A |
| Bm | A | D | E ||
|| E D Bm | Bm || 4x (same accentuation as in the Refrain)
[Bm]Shapes of every s[A]ize m[D]ove behind my e[A]yes
[Bm]Doors inside my h[A]ead b[D]olted from wit[A]hin
[Bm]Every drop of fl[A]ame l[D]ights a candle [A]in
[Bm]Memory of the o[A]ne who l[D]ived inside my sk[E]in
And [E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you why
P[E]eople [D]go [Bm]insane
[E]I c[D]an s[Bm]how you how
[E]You could d[D]o the s[E]ame
And [E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you why
p[E]eople d[D]ie [Bm]alone
[E]I c[D]an t[Bm]ell you I'm
A s[E]hadow [D]on the s[Bm]un
