[Verse]
G
We could pretend that it's nothing
D
Hide from this sufferin'
Am
We could do just enough
C
And maybe we will
[Verse]
G
We could face the other way
D
Wait for another day
Am
And find new ways not to say it
C
Do you think we will
[Verse]
G
We could make ourselves immune
D
Play it safe and resume
Am
Singing ourselves the same old tune
C
I wonder if we will
[Pre-chorus]
G
We could choose not to use our eyes
D
Lose ourselves in our disguise
Am
Know but pretend otherwise
C
And wonder still
G D
And wonder still
Am C
And wonder still
[Chorus]
Am D
What do we become
G G/F# Cadd9
If we hide and if we run
Am D
Shadows on the sun
G G/F# Cadd9
Shadows on everyone
G G/F# C Cadd9
Shadows on everyone
[Instrumental]
G D Am C G D Am C
[Verse]
G
We could wait and see if it'll pass
D
Never tell and never ask
Am
Keep on hoping it won't last
C
When we know it will
[Verse]
G
We could hide in the night
D
Never take flight
Am
Like a sparrow perching tight
C
On the window sill
[Verse]
G
We could try and deny it
D
Keep on trying to fight it
Am
Hold the match and never light it
C
Never feel the thrill
[Pre-chorus]
G
We could bottle it inside
D
Keep the lid on good and tight
Am
But at some point in the night
C
It's gonna start to spill
Cadd9 D
It's gonna start to spill
[Chorus]
Am D
What do we become
G G/F# Cadd9
If we hide and if we run
Am D
Shadows on the sun
Am D
Shadows on the sun
Am D
Love's under the gun
Am D
Love's under the gun
Am D
Shadows on the sun
G G/F# Cadd9
Shadows on everyone
G G/F# C Cadd9
Shadows on everyone
[Outro]
