[Verse 1]
Am                    Am
Shadow people, what's in their head?
       Am                        Am
In the car next to you, when the light turns red,
         Am                         Am
Could be thinking of love, might be thinking of hate,
  Am                         G            F   G
I guess it pretty much could go either way.
 
 
[Chorus]
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.
 
 
[Verse 2]
           Am
That one's thinking of great art,
    Am
And eloquent words,
           Am
That one's strapped on a gun,
           Am
And joined up with the herd,
           Am
That one's saving up water,
         Am
Got some food stored away,
    Am                            G            F  G
For the war that is coming on the judgment day.
 
 
[Chorus]
Am                G            F   F   F  F
Shadow people, in shadow land.

             D                     Am
And this one carries a gun for the USA,
       D            Am
He's a 21st Century man,
         D
And he's scary as hell,
       Am
'Cause when he's afraid,
         G                F                F
He'll destroy anything he don't understand.

[Verse 3]
       Am
Well I ain't on the left,
      Am
And I ain't on the right,
  Am
I ain't even sure,
        Am
I got a dog in this fight,
      Am
In my time of need,
      Am
In my time of grief,
       Am                      G        F  G
I feel like a shadow's falling over me.
 
 
[Chorus]
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.
Am                G            F   F
Shadow people, in shadow land.

[Outro]
Dm7                       G
Waiting for the sun to be straight overhead,
        Dm7          G         A
'Til we ain't got no shadow at all.
