Difficulty: Intermediate

Intro:
E5            G          D5
Join in my... join in my child and listen...
E5                    G         D5
Digging through my old numb shadow


Verse 1:
   E5           G
My shadow's... shedding skin
D                    A
I've been picking... scabs again
Em        G
I'm down, digging through
D               A
My old muscles, looking for a clue

Pre-Chorus 1:
           E5              G
I've been crawling on my belly
         D5                 A
Clearing out what could've been
           E5             G
I've been wallowing in my own confused
    D5          A
And insecure delusions
       E5                G
For a piece to cross me over
     D5                A
Or a word to guide me in
         E5               G
I wanna feel the changes coming down
         D5                  A
I wanna know what I've been hiding


Chorus 1:
      E5
In my shadow
    G
My shadow
D
Change is coming through
    A
My shadow
   E5
My shadow's
G
Shedding skin
D5
I've been picking
A
My scabs again


Spoken:
E5             G           D5
Join in my... join in my child
E5            G           D5
Shadow's... closer to meaning


Pre-Chorus 2:
           E5              G
I've been crawling on my belly
         D5                 A
Clearing out what could've been
           E5             G
I've been wallowing in my own confused
    D5          A
And insecure delusions
         E5               G
I wanna feel the change consume me
         D                A
Feel the outside turning in
         E5           G
I wanna feel the metamorphosis and
D
Cleansing I've endured within


Chorus 2:
     A
My shadow
     E5
My shadow
            G
Change is coming
D5
Now is my time
E5
Listen to my muscle memory
G
Contemplate what I've been clinging to
D5                            A
Forty-six and two ahead of me


Bridge:
E5
I... choose to live and to
G
Grow... take and give and to
D5
Move... learn and love and to
A
Cry... kill and die and to
E5
Be... paranoid and to
G
Lie... hate and fear and to
D5                             A
Do... what it takes to move through

A
I... choose to live and to
E5
Lie... kill and give and to
G
Die... learn and love and to
D
Do... what it takes to step through


Outro:
E5
See my shadow changing
G
Stretching up and over me
D5
Soften this old armor
A
Hoping I can clear the way by
E5
Stepping through my shadow
G
Coming out the other side
D5
Step into the shadow
A                                    E5
Forty six and two are just ahead of me
