[Intro]
B F# E
[Verse 1]
BIs anybody over there?
BAre you following me
EI look into the distance
EAs far as I can see
BYou said you had an early night to catch up on your sleep
EBut I heard you went out last night
EYou were never off your feet
[Pre-Chorus]
F#You've retropection you
F#Left with a list of things to do
ESo lets see what th night bringsE  
[Chorus]
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
[Verse 2]
BIt's the morning after the night before
BI'm on the floor Edisorientated, dehydrated
EWaking up to another missed call
BI'm back in the real world
BWhere everybody lives to work or do they work to live
EYou're only interested when it's all take without no give
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#You've got no reason to lie
F#Just speak your mind cause I'm not fussed
ESo long as i know where i stand
[Chorus]
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
[Verse 3]
BLast nights drunken ways got carried away
BBut it happens all so fast
ETill you find yourself stood with your best mate
EReminiscing about the past
[Verse 4]
BEverything seems better
BEverything seems so much better
BWhen you're out your tree Ebranching on to anyone who'll Eagree to disagree
[Pre-Chorus 3]
F#It was the end of the night we'd been told twice we had to leave
EBecause nothing lasts forever
[Chorus]
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
I'm always chasing shaBdowsE  
B F# E

[Intro]

B F# E

[Verse 1]

Is anybody over there?

Are you following me

I look into the distance

As far as I can see

You said you had an early night to catch up on your sleep

But I heard you went out last night

You were never off your feet

[Pre-Chorus]

You've retropection you

Left with a list of things to do

E E

So lets see what th night brings

[Chorus]

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

[Verse 2]

It's the morning after the night before

B E

I'm on the floor disorientated, dehydrated

Waking up to another missed call

I'm back in the real world

Where everybody lives to work or do they work to live

You're only interested when it's all take without no give

[Pre-Chorus 2]

You've got no reason to lie

Just speak your mind cause I'm not fussed

So long as i know where i stand

[Chorus]

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

[Verse 3]

Last nights drunken ways got carried away

But it happens all so fast

Till you find yourself stood with your best mate

Reminiscing about the past

[Verse 4]

Everything seems better

Everything seems so much better

B E E

When you're out your tree branching on to anyone who'll agree to disagree

[Pre-Chorus 3]

It was the end of the night we'd been told twice we had to leave

Because nothing lasts forever

[Chorus]

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

B E

I'm always chasing shadows

B E

I'm always chasing shadows
