Intro: E minorEm BB
E minorEm
Now there's a singer everyone has heard
E minorEm
At night he turns into a mocking bird
BB
If I whistle in the dark he'll do that too.
E minorEm
I met him on the road at the close of day
G+G
Talk like me, walk this way
E minorEm BB E minorEm
I said "Mocking bird, you ain't no widowmaker".
E minorEm
And there is a singer everybody knows,
E minorEm
he makes round with late night show,
BB
Shake the hands in the hopes that the masquerade is on,
E minorEm A minorAm
You turn him off on the radio when he say me and my shadow,
BB
Shoot out the lights my shadow's gone.
E minorEm
Down at the bottom of the calendar day
E minorEm
find my roots yeah you'll see all eight
E minorEm BB
if I'm tied up to the tracks, then he's chained up to the road
(Down at the bottom of the calendar day)
E minorEm A minorAm
And it's one for the money, two for the show, for me and my shadow.
BB E minorEm
Shoot out the lights and my shadow's gone
BB E minorEm
Shoot out the lights and my shadow is gone
Instr: E minorEm x3 BB
E minorEm
There is a shadow everyone has heard,
E minorEm
At night he turns into a mocking bird,
BB
If I whistle in the dark, he'll do that too
E minorEm A minorAm
I met him on the road today, a silhouette on a black highway
E minorEm BB E minorEm
I said "You can have this world, this world is not my own"
E minorEm BB E minorEm
Then he said " You can keep this world, this world is not my home".
