Shadow in the Way Tift Merritt
Song Title: Shadow In The Way
Album Title: Tambourine
INTRO: A G D A G D
VERSE I
[D]Before a word is spoken, everything is broken, even what you hid inside
The world has let you [A]down, wrung shame out of your [D]pride
[D]But even as you falter, like sunlight on the water, you shine on my face
The darkness in your h[A]eart, it's just a shadow in the [D]way
CHORUS
[A]Oh,[G] just a shadow in the [D]way
[A]Oh, [G]oh, it's just a shadow in the [D]way
VERSE II
[D]When the fire leaves you, when no one believes you, when you give yourself away
To a stranger on the [A]road, who gives you nothing in [D]exchange
[D]Even when the door shuts, even though the night cuts, like a silver blade
In the morning you [A]will find, it's just a shadow in the [D]way
CHORUS (repeat)
BRIDGE
[G]Though we're caught in the [D]darkness, [A]don't be af[G]raid
[G]Though we're caught in the [D]darkness, [A]don't be af[G]raid
This world of [D]sorr[G]ow, it's just a [D]shad[G]ow
This world of [D]sorr[G]ow, it's just a [D]shad[G]ow, it's just a [A]shadow
VERSE III
[D]Got to get up again, and let the light in, throw your tears away
That mountain looks so [A]high, it's just a shadow in the [D]way
CHORUS (repeat & fade)
