Am     G/B  C            D          Em       C       DFooled by a trick of the light, the way that he came in
C                D               Em        C        DThere's a land beneath the moon, after his damp and cold

Am       DBack the shadows

[Chorus]
         C                 D           GHe could lift his head and turn to the sun
   C               DTo bury that borderline
Em         G       C           BmFreedom is only as good as you feel
   Am    G/B C         DSo grasp and hold this moment in time

Am      G/B     C          D          Em   C      DCasting out the shadows of doubt, wherever he may be
C              D             Em            C         DSoldier of the peaceful way, fighting from dusk 'til dawn
Am   G/B          C       D         Em      C        DEverything's been ripped apart, but nothing has been torn
  Am       DExcept the shadows
