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

Have fun!
