Shadows Of The City

Am (let it ring) F (---) Oh the streets bleeding out for a real dream that's not filled with unmarked bills Am (---) F (---) When the moon turns its back to let off steam you're faced with a cold chill Am (---) F (---) There's a bird at the window, smoke in its eye, singing off key Am (---) F(---) C (---) F (---) There's a wounded girl with her heart shaped shoe in the shadows In the shadows Am (---) In the shadows F (---) of the city Am (now played) F Well the trains are half empty with faces that try to break off their chains Am F Bound by the sound of the screaming dawn that is all their name Am F there’s a madman throwing stones at the streetlight coming through a torn out shade Am F C F there’s a small river by the fallen tree in the shadows In the shadows Am In the shadows F of the city Am F you can feel the air breathing down your neck like a ghost standing by your side Am F flashing white teeth by the silent road he’s looking for a place to hide Am F rain cold woman with a knife in her hand and a shovel on the grassy ground Am F C F catch a left eye you can hear the sound of the shadows in the shadows Am in the shadows F of the city Am in the shadows F of the city (adlibs to end)
