Follow my shadow
Chorus
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me where it goes.
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go.
Verse
Does it hide and wait for the sun?
Does it lie in wait of the moon?
Walk bedside me holding my hand
When the clock is at high noon.
Chorus
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me, where it goes.
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go.
Verse
Does it stay home when there is rain?
Does it sleep until sunrise?
Keep to its self, not share its pain.
Who is this shadow of mine?
Bridge
Is it my friend or enemy?
Does it know my dark side?
Tell me why, does it tag along.
Tag along for the ride.
Chorus
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me, where it goes.
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go.

Intro: 4 bars (key of G, Em)
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me where it goes
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go
Does it hide and wait for the sun?
Does it lie in wait of the moon?
Walk bedside me holding my hand?
When the clock is at high noon?
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me where it goes
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go
Does it stay home when there is rain?
Does it sleep until new sunrise?
Keep to its self, not share its pain?
Who is this shadow of mine?
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me where it goes
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go
Is it my friend or enemy?
Does it know my dark side?
Tell me why, does it tag along?
Tag along for the ride?
Interlude: 8 bars
Follow my shadow, follow my shadow
Tell me where it goes
It leaves no trace it has no face
Gets longer the further we go
Follow my shadow
