Eric Andersen Under The Shadows written by Eric Andersen
D
Under the shadows
A
Under the gun
D
Under the wire
G
My back to the sun
D
I’m over the deadline
A
I’m way over the edge
Bm
I’m under the shadows
G
I’m over my head
D
I’m hearing voices
A
But nothin sounds real
D
The music is heartfelt
G
But it’s nothin I feel
D
I’m too tired to phone
A
I’m too edgy to care
D
No need to open my eyes
G
I know what’s out there
D
I see a reflection
A
There’s a man in the glass
D
I’m too scared to reach out
G
I’m too frightened of masks
D
The face isn’t movin
A
Cause only time does
D
What’ll happen when he finds out
G
That what is ain’t what was
D
Every person I know
A
Has made a mistake
D
Like it or not
G
Each has its own face
D
You can try and protect it
A
Try and cover it up
Bm
Or wear a disguise
G
Is it ever enough
D
I think I’ll retire
A
To an old rodeo
D
Sit in the bleachers
G
With an old radio
D
Seen so many places
A
Seen too many views
D
Each face I remember
G
Was only one that I knew
D
Under the shadows
A
Under the gun
D
Under the wire
G
My back to the sun
D
I’m over the deadline
A
Way over the edge
Bm
I’m under the shadows
G
Way over my head
D
Under the shadows
A D
Way over my head
