Verse 1:
Am                    Am
Shadow people, what's in their head?
       Am                        Am
In the car next to you, when the light turns red
Am                         Am
Could be thinking of love, might be thinking of hate
Am                         G            F   G
I guess it pretty much could go either way.


Chorus:
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.


Verse 2:
           Am
That one's thinking of great art
Am
And eloquent words
Am
That one's strapped on a gun
Am
And joined up with the herd
Am
That one's saving up water
Am
Got some food stored away
Am                            G            F  G
For the war that is coming on the judgment day.


Chorus:
Am                G            F   F   F  F
Shadow people, in shadow land.

             D                     Am
And this one carries a gun for the USA
D            Am
He's a 21st Century man
D
And he's scary as hell
Am
'Cause when he's afraid
G                F                F
He'll destroy anything he don't understand.

Verse 3:
       Am
Well I ain't on the left
Am
And I ain't on the right
Am
I ain't even sure
Am
I got a dog in this fight
Am
In my time of need
Am
In my time of grief
Am                      G        F  G
I feel like a shadow's falling over me.


Chorus:
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.

Outro:

Waiting for the sun to be straight overhead
Dm7          G         A
'Til we ain't got no shadow at all.
