[Intro]
 Bm   A    GX2
[Verse 1]
LBmately I think I'm inAvisible
And GI don't know where to begin
I'm waBmlking through walls
TAhey seem so paper tGhin
EveBmryone's walking right pasAt me
Like GI don't even exist
If BmI were a home
ThAey'd build right over Git
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hEmear me when I speak
Cuz the siGlence leaves me weak
It's lBmike you never knew me at aAll
Can you fEmeel me when I'm near
When I whGisper in your ear
BmDo you hear me singing this sAong
[Chorus]
I lost my own shDadow
Where did it F#mgo
No I don't know Bmhow to
Live in this wGorld
I lost my own shDadow
Now who can I F#mbe
Cuz I'm not no Bmhuman
If Gyou see right through Dme
F#mMe, BmMe
If yGou see right through
[Verse 2]
I'm siBmtting here at someone's fuAneral
WaGtching you saying your goodbyes
FeBmeling so helpless
AI could not stop the crGying
A phoBmtograph sits by the the coAffin
Oh IG've seen that person before
He lBmooks quite familiar
But IA'm sure anGymore
[Pre-Chorus]
Can they hEmear me when I speak
Cuz this siGlence leaves me weak
It's lBmike they never knew me at aAll
Can they fEmeel me when I'm near
When I whGisper in your ear
BmDo they hear me singing this sAong
[Chorus]
I lost my own shDadow

[Intro]

Bm A G

[Verse 1]

Bm A

Lately I think I'm invisible

And I don't know where to begin

I'm walking through walls

A G

They seem so paper thin

Bm A

Everyone's walking right past me

Like I don't even exist

If I were a home

A G

They'd build right over it

[Pre-Chorus]

Can you hear me when I speak

Cuz the silence leaves me weak

Bm A

It's like you never knew me at all

Can you feel me when I'm near

When I whisper in your ear

Bm A

Do you hear me singing this song

[Chorus]

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Where did it go

No I don't know how to

Live in this world

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Now who can I be

Cuz I'm not no human

G D

If you see right through me

F#m Bm

Me, Me

If you see right through

[Verse 2]

Bm A

I'm sitting here at someone's funeral

Watching you saying your goodbyes

Feeling so helpless

A G

I could not stop the crying

Bm A

A photograph sits by the the coffin

Oh I've seen that person before

He looks quite familiar

A G

But I'm sure anymore

[Pre-Chorus]

Can they hear me when I speak

Cuz this silence leaves me weak

Bm A

It's like they never knew me at all

Can they feel me when I'm near

When I whisper in your ear

Bm A

Do they hear me singing this song

[Chorus]

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Where did it go

No I don't know how to

Live in this world

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Now who can I be

Cuz I'm not no human

G D

If you see right through me

F#m Bm

Me, me

If you see right through

[Bridge]

And how the hell did I end up here

Bm A

If I'm not alive

They're crying like I'm gone my dear

Bm A

I thought I survived

No I will show you

Let me hold you

Like I'm supposed to

A G

Like we we used to

[Outro]

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Where did it go

No I don't know how to

Em G

Live in this world

I lost my own shadow

F#m

Now who can I be

Cuz I'm not no human

G D

If you see right through me

F#m Bm

Me, me

G D

If you see right through me
