C F
Who is that upon the stairs
F Gm
Acting like he don't know where
Bb F
and who is laying down all the cards
Dm
and giving me the wrong things to say
Gm
and like a wheel on the table
Bb
He's a Cain to my Abel
C F
Oh....... it's my shadow
F Gm
The confessor to my dreams
Bb C F
casting ribbon round my feet.....oh into my day
F Gm
it's my shadow...making eyes until the sun lights the daytime
Bb C F
as she comes..oh..into my day
D# Bb F
Happy in the time when I would have been there to see you
D# Bb F
Happy in the time when I would have been there at all
D C D
Happy when the night is gone and I believe you
E F D
Happy when the night is gone and I need a call.
(Instrumental)
D G Am
Who is chasing in the wind all the letters never sent
G
and who is dusting down the stars
Em
and giving me the wrong moves to make.
Am C
And like a wheel on the table, he's a Cain to my Abel
D G
dancing upon the floor, it's my shadow
C
making eyes until the sun blinds the daytime
D G
as she comes..oh into my day
G C
it's my shadow like a willow to my stream
casting heaven round my feet
D G
oh.....into my day
G D C
When you find that things are getting wild is that
D G
the hardest smile that you can ever feel.
G D C
When you find that things are getting wild is that
D G
the hardest smile that you can ever feel.
G C C G C G
paralysed until the sun lights the daytime as she comes
Am D
And if my shadow comes a creeping
Am D G
then I know i'll find me sleeping in the sun.

When you find that things are getting wild is that
D G
the hardest thing that you can ever feel (repeat to fade)
