Shadow Ashlee Simpson
"Shadow"
Verse:
I was s[G]ix years old
[F]When my parents went awa[C]y
I was stuck inside a broken [F]life
I couldn't wish [G]away
She was beautiful
[F]She had everything and [C]more
And my escape was h[G]iding out and running for the [C]door
Prechorus:
[C]Somebody listen pl[G]ease
[C]It used to be so hard being [F]me
CHORUS:
Living in the [G]shadow
Of someone else's [F]dream
Trying to find a [C]hand to hold but every touch felt cold to [F]me
Living in a ni[G]ghtmare
A never-ending [F]sleep
But now that I am w[C]ide awake
My chains are finally [F]free
Don't feel sorry fo[G]r me
Verse2:
[G]All the days collided
[F]One less perfect than the [C]next
I was stuck inside someo[F]ne else's life and always second be[G]st
Oh, I love you now '[F]cause now I realiz[C]e
That it's safe outside to [G]come alive in my i[C]dentity
Prechorus:
[C]So if you're lis[G]tening
[C]There's so much more to me you hav[F]en't seen
CHORUS:
Living in the shad[G]ow
Of someone else's dr[F]eam
Trying to find a [C]hand to hold but every touch felt cold to [F]me
Living in a [G]nightmare
A never-ending [F]sleep
But now that I am wide a[C]wake
Then I can finally [F]see
Don't feel sorr[G]y-
Bridge:
[C]Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
[G]Everything's cool now
[C]Mother, sister, father, sister, mother
[G]Everything's cool now
[F]Oh, my life is good
[C]I've got more than anyone should
[F]Oh, my life is good
[C]And the past in the pas[G]t
[G]I was living in the shadow
Of someone else's d[F]ream
Trying to find a [C]hand to hold but every touch felt cold to [F]me
I'm living in a new[G] day
I'm living it for [F]me
And now that I am wide [C]awake
Then I can finally [F]be
Don't feel sorry for [G]me
[F]Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for [G]me
[F]Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for [G]me
[G]Living in, living in, living in the [F]shadow
[C]Living in, living in, living in[F] a new day
