Shadow Play Chords

(ver. 1)
Poets Of The Fall
[Intro]
 
Em
 
 
[Verse]
 
Em    G
 
      D       A      Em  G
I can feel it in the air
      D       A         Em     G
I can feel it young and strong
           D  A      Em  G
Like an intoxicating dare
           D   A      Em  G
(Like an intoxicating dare)
         D    A     Em  G
For some residue of joy
       D         A     Em  G
Simple pleasures and delights
          D        A        Em
Would you buy that ruthless ploy
G         D        A
Would you buy that ploy?
E
Mark my words
     F         B         E
It's not quite what you thought
 
 
[Chorus]
 
       C
Shadow play
   D        Em
Directed by you
                  C
Love portrays Ms. Take
    Bm            Em
The Oscar goes to hate
        C
Dragons slain
    D        Em
The princess rescued
                  C
It's all what you create
     Bm              Em
Your shadows will be played
 
 
[Interlude]
 
Em G D A Em G D A
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em    G
 
             D         A       Em  G
And here now comes the sweet cares
    D  A     Em       G
Unreality to guide us
       D        A       Em  G
With a forceful righteousness
        D        A        Em  G
(With a forceful righteousness)
            D         A       Em    G
And you can taste the kiss of death
       D         A        Em  G
More divine than breath I know
       D        A       Em
Always just the right address
G        D       A
Just the right caress
E
Mark my words
     F         B         E
It's not quite what you thought
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
       C
Shadow play
   D        Em
Directed by you
                  C
Love portrays Ms. Take
    Bm            Em
The Oscar goes to hate
        C
Dragons slain
    D        Em
The princess rescued
                  C
It's all what you create
     Bm              C    Bm A G
Your shadows will be played
 
 
[Interlude]
 
C Bm A G
C Bm A G
 
 
[Bridge]
 
   C                          Bm
So this is what you think you need to play the game
  A
A pretty royal flush
   G
Of second hand fame
    C
For proof of excellence
    Bm
For critical acclaim
 A
Aloof preeminence
  G
Preceding your pen name
C
Clichés of violence
    Bm
And off mark blame
     A
Some character flaws
   G
To masticate the shame
C                   Bm
Sex in a dress in a wide array
A                  G
Sex in a suit, hello, happy birthday
E
Mark my words
     F         B         E
It's not quite what you thought
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
       C
Shadow play
   D        Em
Directed by you
                  C
Love portrays Ms. Take
    Bm            Em
The Oscar goes to hate
        C
Dragons slain
    D        Em
The princess rescued
                  C
It's all what you create
     Bm              Em
Your shadows will be played
 
Em G D A Em G D A
