This is a great song. Shinedown are awesome so I thought I'd tab this. The tab may not be exactly how Zach
from Shinedown plays the song but it sounds like it and I think that it's pretty accurate. Enjoy :)

[Chorus]
C G Em
Did you hide yourself away?
C G Em
I can't see you anymore
C G Em
Did you eclipse another day?
A
I used to wake up to the colour of your soul
C G Em
Did you hide yourself away?
C G Em
Are you living through the ghost?
C G Em
Did you finally find a place
A
Above the shadows so the world will never know?
C
The world will never know you like I do

[Bridge]
This isn't how the bridge is actually played, but it sounds better if you play it like this if you have no
string accompaniment.
