Shadow On

G  Em  Am  Cm Bm  Am  G# G

[Verse]
G         Em           Am      Cm  Bm
How did a crowd get so lonely?
                       Am
How did a dream get so old?
D           Am  D                 Am   D      Am    G# G
How did the rose in the palm of a hand get so heavy to hold?

[Verse]
G           Em        Am      Cm  Bm
How did the thread so slender?
                      Am
Must be a bit hanging on
D        Am D           Am   D
Maybe we can start over again
           Am   G# G
Before the echo is gone

[Verse]
G     Em7 barred     Am        Cm  Bm
If it really must be going now
                       Am
If the final leaf must fall

[Chorus]
   G#             G        Em      Am7    D      G    C  G  D7
Oh maybe it could leave at least a shadow on the wall

[Verse]
G   Em7 barred     Am        Cm  Bm
Up above there's a sea of love
                  Am
Under heaven’s control
D             Am  D
The slower we get
              Am   D
The faster it stays
         Am      G# G
Then the further it goes

[Verse]
G                Em7 bar  Am      Cm  Bm
Guess I was just lucky to grab it
              Am
To have it to hold
D                 Am
Was as new as the snow
D                 Am
The shape of your heart
D       Am   G#    G
And the size of my soul

[Verse]
G         Em7 barred     Am        Cm  Bm
But if it really must be going now
          Am
If that's all

[Chorus]
     G#              G        Em      Am7
I'll see if it could leave at least a shadow
D7              G        Em      Am7
See if it could leave at least a shadow
                D7       G        Em    Am7
See if it could leave at least a shadow
                D7               G        Em    Am7
See if it could leave at least a shadow a shadow
                D7               G        Em    Am7
See if it could leave at least a shadow
D      G   Em  Am7
on the wall
D      G   C  G
on the wall
