R: But the shadows are on your side
Eb Bb
as soon as the lights go down
D Gm
In the darkest place you can find
Eb D
you be long to the hands of the night
1. Promises made with a distant friend
Truth should be known it can only bend
to a tune of it's own, hey, you'll never hear
that voice again Scandal in white
on a tangled vine with everybody to say
that you're having the time of your life
when your life is on the slide
R: But the shadows...
2. Spinning a compass to choose your way
You can run, you can dive, you can stand and you can soar
whichever way you can be sure
R: But the shadows...
