Verse: 1 
            G              C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of me 
        C                               G        D 
Well I guess I’ll be the shadow of that post oak tree 
         Em           C 
In the forest by your house 
                 G 
Where we used to meet 
            G              C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of me 


Verse: 2 
            G              C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of you 
        C                                 G                 D 
Well I hope to catch the briefest glimpse as you go passing through 
       Em             C 
As the shadow of the Lincoln 
                 G 
That we drove to school 
           G               C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of you 


Bridge:
Em                               G 
Lines will disappear as we grow darker 
Em                                 G 
Darker than we planned for at the start 
     Em                             G 
The light of morning will get even farther 
    D 
Until at last 
              C 
You can’t tell us apart. 


Verse: 3 
              G               C      D      G 
So if they’re going to make a shadow out of us 
        C                                 G        D 
Casting downward to the valley like an Appalachian bluff 
       Em           C 
I was born, then I loved you 
                 G 
I guess that was enough 
            G              C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of us 
            G              C      D      G 
If they’re going to make a shadow out of us
