E5
When I was standin' on the gallows
A
Nothing to say, I watched my sun... go down
E5
And light got dark around the edges
A (Riff 4)
With no control I felt my soul... go down
D E A D <--------these chords spell "DEAD!"
When you're dead there isn't anybody else,
A D E
Nobody else... at all
(Riff 1, Riff 2, Riff 1, Riff 3)
E5
So darkness came upon the valley
A
And all the war machines broke down... broke down
E5
And all the children ran for cover
A (Riff 4)
And all the animals broke down... broke down
Chorus:
E A D A
Ooh, well maybe they... should not have
E A D A
Been quite so bold... to test me
E A D A
For I am the Shape...shifter
E A
And I'll have my revenge
(Riff 5)
E B5

E B5 (Riff 4)
[ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh's...]
(Chorus)
