[Verse 1]
AThere I was, just stGanding in your shadow
Just sBmtanding in your pool of shade venAeer
AHere I am, still yGellowed by the summer
Still sBmuffering in silence loud and clAear
[Bridge]
AWell I catch the tFrain, it takes me bAack
AWe leave the raFils and the carriage sEnaps
[Verse 2]
AThere I was, just lyGing in the kitchen
Just lBmistening to voices through the tAiles
AAnd they said the oGne thing you can count on
Is yBmou can count on nothing here my cAhild
[Bridge]
AWell you dig my grFave and slap my bAack
AAnd I turn grFey on the beaten trEack
[bridge 2]
A F
FBut you hardlGy notice
You hardly notEice
[Chorus]
AWhat do you say when they roll a grenade
FAnd it almost takes your breath away?
GTalking to Joe with the head of a crow
EAnd it's all gone pear-shaped
[Verse 3]
AThere I was, just staGnding in your shadow
Just suBmffering in silence loud and clAear
[Outro]
A G Bm
AStanding in your shadow (Standing in your shadow) x2
ASomething's not right (Standing in your shadow)
