Shadows

[Intro]
[Cm] [Eb] [Bb] [D] [Bb] [Eb] [D] [Ab]

[Cm]Memories of [Eb]shadows haunt me
[Bb]From the years [D]when I was young
[Bb]Things that used [Eb]to terrify me
[D]Are the things, [Ab]that I've become
[Cm]There's a dark [Eb]moon in the clouds
[Bb]Misty fog [D]in the swamp
[Bb]Crickets chirpin' [Eb]outside my window
[D]The water it thumps in [Ab]the bathroom sink down the hall
[Cm]The lights [Eb]flicker sometimes
[Bb]The wind is howling, the dogs [D]are growling way deep in the pines
[Bb]A passin' car on the [Eb]distant road, the only thing running
[D]Nightmares in my sleep, [Ab]the Sandman is coming
[Cm]I see the ghost in the [Eb]red cloak, the shadows are taking shape
[Bb]The sound of a faint [D]voice, lost and full of hate
[Bb]Dry leaves crumble under [Eb]the feet of the reaper
[D]The limbs tap on my window, [Ab]like the nails of a creature
[Cm]Tales of goblins and fairies, [Eb]a sacrifice on the prairie
[Bb]A murderer that escaped, [D]I'm disillusioned and weary
[Bb]Lightning strikes on the [Eb]hill, illuminating the cabin
[D]The old man on the [Ab]porch, evil and quietly laughing
[Cm]Surrounded by demons
[Eb]I'm an angel and [Bb]they all want me
[D]And to [Bb]this day ...
[Eb]Memories of [D]shadows haunt me
[Ab]From the years [Cm]when I was young
[Eb]Things that used [Bb]to terrify me
[D]Are the things, [Bb]that I've become
[Eb]Cigarette buds, and oil [D]stains on the dying grass
[Ab]The smell of the liquor, [Cm]rising up from the broken glass
[Eb]The crowds of black leather, [Bb]the heat from the engines
[D]Motorcycles and goons, bearded [Bb]men and loud women
[Eb]The cracklin' paint, the old [D]shack with the swingin' light
[Ab]The heroin needles passin', [Cm]open in plain sight
[Eb]Ozzy and Black Sabbath, [Bb]the vinyl is skippin'
[D]From the fight [Bb]in the kitchen
[Eb]Blood screamin' [D]and kickin'
[Ab]Smoke fills up the sky, [Cm]gasoline on the trash heap
[Eb]The mattress is burnin', I [Bb]hear it poppin' and snapping
[D]The rain soaked teddy bear, [Bb]so heavy I can't lift it
[Eb]The flask for the moonshine, I [D]watch as they all sip it
[Ab]The Halloween pumpkin candle, [Cm]lit with a Pentagram
[Eb]The Grandfather clock, with [Bb]a broken minute hand
[D]Surrounded by thieves, killers, [Bb]thugs and some junkies
[Eb]And to [D]this day ...
[Ab]Memories of [Cm]shadows haunt me
[Eb]From the years [Bb]when I was young
[D]Things that used [Bb]to terrify me
[Eb]Are the things, [D]that I've become
[Ab]I throw on my leather [Cm]jacket, a collection of biker patches
[Eb]One of them says savage, [Bb]the other one Black Sabbath
[D]Heavily tatted, barely [Bb]any skin left
[Eb]Whiskey bent after twelve, [D]I'm always playing with death
[Ab]Bullet shells in my yard, [Cm]loaded gun on the shelf
[Eb]Run the roads like a [Bb]wolf, through the whole Bible Belt
[D]Rattlesnake skin boots, toes [Bb]up on the chopper
[Eb]Fifty Harleys behind me, [D]they all ready to slaughter
[Ab]Drunk in front of my sons, [Cm]drunk in front of my daughter
[Eb]Spit, cuss, and I yell, [Bb]it's like a one-sided quarter
[D]'Cause I'm only heads up, no [Bb]matter which way you flip it
[Eb]No brake lights in my [D]life, I'm either rich or evicted
[Ab]Committed to my convictions, [Cm]committed crimes with the quitters
[Eb]Connected to my religion, [Bb]the religion of sinners
[D]Send a prayer to God, [Bb]exhaling smoke off the meth pipe
[Eb]Like puddles reflecting the [D]ripples echo to next life
[Ab]So here I am standing just like [Cm]the ashes that fell from the fire
[Eb]A seed that fell off [Bb]that poisonous and forgotten flower
[D]Became my own nightmare, but [Bb]now I think it's charming
[Eb]Especially when ...
[D]Memories of [Ab]shadows haunt me
[Cm]From the years [Eb]when I was young
[Bb]Things that used [D]to terrify me
[Bb]Are the things, [Eb]that I've become
[D]Bloody bone [Ab]gon' get you
[Cm]Bloody bone [Eb]gon' get you
[Bb]Bloody bone [D]gon' get you
