As recorded by Mumford & Sons

Capo 3rd fret
[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
COld town behind us
GmI used to fly
CPour yourself a drink
GThat's when I slide
CAlways looking for another way out
GmNever just at ease
CWhen everybody settles down to revel
GThat's when I have to leave
[Pre-Chorus]
GStaring down forever
C GmFeels like more than I can take
[Chorus]
CThis is all I am
G CHere in Everdene
G C CAll I ever wanted was a reason to believe
CBut I’ve been holding on to everything
G CAs tightly as I can
G C COh my God, I’m just a shadow of a man
Gm C G CAnd it’s more than I can hold
[Verse 2]
CI watch as they sit still
GmWith my green eyes
CAll that I wish that I could be
GMakes me a liar
CI'm moving like a snake among the weeds
GmWhy sly?
C GI will never know what it means for you and I
[Pre-Chorus]
GStaring down forever
C GmFeels like more than I can take
[Chorus]
CThis is all I am
G CHere in Everdene
G C CAll I ever wanted was a reason to believe
CBut I’ve been holding on to everything
G CAs tightly as I can
G C COh my God, I’m just a shadow of a man
Gm'Cause I've stared over the edge
G CAnd I've seen where it leads
G CGod, what I would give
CIf I could only feel at ease
CAnd I'm holding on too tight
G CTake this cup out of my hands
G C COh my God, I'm just a shadow of a man
Gm C C GAnd it's more than I can hold
Gm C C G CMore than I can hold
[Verse 3]
CWhen it's quiet, when it's still
G CGo easy if you can
G C CSometimes I thank God I'm just a shadow of a man
C'Cause I've seen over the edge
G CThere's reason to believe
G CI feel it pull too tight
CWrap its arms around me
