capo 2
EmI was boGrn on a Emdark gray mGorn’ splEmashed before I A(sus2)crawled
And I was raised in a deep dark cave where the shadows danced on walls
And late one fall as I stood up tall the winds began to swirl
And then one morning a gorgeous storm I began to wrap around the world
CAfter all and aGll is well I fCeel the sGame
CI’m just casting sDhadows on the wGall
CI’ve come now to the pGlace from wChich I caGme
CAnd I’m just casting sDhadows on the wGall
The EmaftermGath of a trEmaveled pGath is a Emweary scrambled A(sus2)grave
And restless hearts will falsely start with a world about to cave
CAfter all and Gall is well I fCeel the sGame
CI’m just casting shDadows on the wGall
CI’ve come now to the plGace from wChich I caGme
CAnd I’m just cDasting shadows on the waGllEm  
And oh I CranG, and oh I EmraDn, and oh I rCan 
EmRight or wrong, I’m right from where I came
And Emoh I Gran all acEmross the lGand, I’m rEmight from where I A(sus2)came
In all my glory I will tell my story of how I went insane
I went inEmsane
And oh I CranG, and oh I EmraDn, and oh I rCan 
EmRight or wrong, I’m right from where I came
CAfter all and aGll is well I fCeel the sGame
CI’m just casting sDhadows on the wGall
CI’ve come now to the plGace from wChich I caGme
CAnd I’m just casting shDadows on the wEmall                    (3x)

capo 2

Em G Em G Em A(sus2)

I was born on a dark gray morn’ splashed before I crawled

And I was raised in a deep dark cave where the shadows danced on walls

And late one fall as I stood up tall the winds began to swirl

And then one morning a gorgeous storm I began to wrap around the world

C G C G

After all and all is well I feel the same

C D G

I’m just casting shadows on the wall

C G C G

I’ve come now to the place from which I came

C D G

And I’m just casting shadows on the wall

Em G Em G Em A(sus2)

The aftermath of a traveled path is a weary scrambled grave

And restless hearts will falsely start with a world about to cave

C G C G

After all and all is well I feel the same

C D G

I’m just casting shadows on the wall

C G C G

I’ve come now to the place from which I came

C D G Em

And I’m just casting shadows on the wall

C G Em D C

And oh I ran, and oh I ran, and oh I ran

Right or wrong, I’m right from where I came

Em G Em G Em A(sus2)

And oh I ran all across the land, I’m right from where I came

In all my glory I will tell my story of how I went insane

I went insane

C G Em D C

And oh I ran, and oh I ran, and oh I ran

Right or wrong, I’m right from where I came

C G C G

After all and all is well I feel the same

C D G

I’m just casting shadows on the wall

C G C G

I’ve come now to the place from which I came
