Capo 3rd fret
[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
GOld town behind us
EmI used to fly
DPour yourself a drink
CThat's when I slide
GAlways looking for another way out
EmNever just at ease
DWhen everybody settles down to revel
CThat's when I have to leave
[Pre-Chorus]
CStaring down forever
D EmFeels like more than I can take
[Chorus]
GThis is all I am
C GHere in Everdene
C G DAll I ever wanted was a reason to believe
GBut I’ve been holding on to everything
C GAs tightly as I can
C G DOh my God, I’m just a shadow of a man
Em G C GAnd it’s more than I can hold
[Verse 2]
GI watch as they sit still
EmWith my green eyes
DAll that I wish that I could be
CMakes me a liar
GI'm moving like a snake among the weeds
EmWhy sly?
D CI will never know what it means for you and I
[Pre-Chorus]
CStaring down forever
D EmFeels like more than I can take
[Chorus]
GThis is all I am
C GHere in Everdene
C G DAll I ever wanted was a reason to believe
GBut I’ve been holding on to everything
C GAs tightly as I can
C G DOh my God, I’m just a shadow of a man
Em'Cause I've stared over the edge
C GAnd I've seen where it leads
C GGod, what I would give
DIf I could only feel at ease
GAnd I'm holding on too tight
C GTake this cup out of my hands
C G DOh my God, I'm just a shadow of a man
Em D G CAnd it's more than I can hold
Em D G C GMore than I can hold
[Verse 3]
GWhen it's quiet, when it's still
C GGo easy if you can
C G DSometimes I thank God I'm just a shadow of a man
G'Cause I've seen over the edge
C GThere's reason to believe
C GI feel it pull too tight
DWrap its arms around me
