Say, teacher man, I think you lied,
E A
'Cause you said that love would surely die,
E A
I misread the fine print on your sleeve,
E A
As you tried to hand this down to me.
E A
It's too late for you to say to me,
E A
the reasons, I found within,
E A
As I taste the freedom in your sweet,
E A
Love-rich remedy.
F#m
As I fall back down again,
E A E A
I hold my head high.
F#m
And I turn back round to you,
E A E A E A E A
And wave my goodbye.
E A
The same mystic eyes that left me blind,
E A
The same tune that I will hum alone,
E A E A
I know, That it seems I'm sorry.
E A
So with the underlining rule of love,
E A
I slipped through when I should've been awake,
E A E A
And I missed the summer with you.
F#m
As I fall back down again,
E A E A
I hold my head high,
F#m
And I turn back round to you,
C#m A
And wave my goodbye,
E B
And I'll never want again,
C#m A
But I guarantee a steady hand,
E B
There's no sense in regret,
F#m E C#m B
And I know it's only second-best,
A
But I guarantee a steady hand,
When we play Russian Roulette.
E A E A E A E A

Don't shadow me, Shadow me,

Don't shadow me, Shadow me,
E A
Don't shadow me, Shadow me,
E A
Don't shadow me, Shadow me,
E A
Don't shadow me, Shadow me,

Don't shadow me, Shadow me,

Don't shadow me, Shadow me,
E A
Don't shadow me, Shadow me,
F#m
As I fall back down again,
E A E A
I hold my head high,
F#m
And I turn back round to you,
C#m A
And wave my goodbye,
E B
And I'll never want again,
C#m A
But I guarantee a steady hand,
E B
There's no sense in regret,
F#m E C#m B
And I know it's only second-best,
A
But I guarantee a steady hand,
When we play Russian Roulette.
