[Intro]
 A5   A/C#   D5(x2)
[Verse 1]
The sA5hadows creep A/C#faster and fD5urther my son
When you A5let this world A/C#find you afrD5aid
And the F#mabsence of lEight plays tAricks on your mDind
And makes F#mdevils from sEpots in the sAhade
[Verse 2]
But no dA5evils lay wA/C#aiting, no GoD5ds in your sky
It's just yA5ou and the A/C#road beneath your hD5eels
And the F#mpale morning lEight will wAarm the hillsDide
And there's F#mbeauty in wEhat is revAealed
[Chorus]
Now wouldn't it be a F#mshame
If we lEived our lives dDull and afAraid
We sF#mquandered and pEissed it aDway
Wouldn't it a be a sF#mhame
If we mEissed out on wDhat's to be lAearned
We F#mshut off our mEinds in his nAame
[Outro]

[Intro]

A5 A/C# D5

(x2)

[Verse 1]

A5 A/C# D5

The shadows creep faster and further my son

A5 A/C# D5

When you let this world find you afraid

F#m E A D

And the absence of light plays tricks on your mind

F#m E A

And makes devils from spots in the shade

[Verse 2]

A5 A/C# D5

But no devils lay waiting, no Gods in your sky

A5 A/C# D5

It's just you and the road beneath your heels

F#m E A D

And the pale morning light will warm the hillside

F#m E A

And there's beauty in what is revealed

[Chorus]

F#m

Now wouldn't it be a shame

E D A

If we lived our lives dull and afraid

F#m E D

We squandered and pissed it away

F#m

Wouldn't it a be a shame

E D A

If we missed out on what's to be learned

F#m E A

We shut off our minds in his name

[Outro]

Dm A
