Ashlee Simpson "Shadow" Well, I've met with several versions of Shadow on this site that don't satisfy me as much, and me being the biggest Ashlee Simpson lover in town (yeah, sounds weird for a 'Tallica fan), I might as well throw in my effort on this one. This are the chords (I THINK) you actually need to play: (Mostly so you can do the 'fill-ins' the guitar has on the intro and verses). --3--|--3--|--0--|-----|-----|--1--| --3--|--3--|--1--|-----|--3--|--1--| --4--|--4--|--0--|--2--|--2--|--2--| --5--|--3--|--2--|-----|-----|--3--| --5--|--5--|--3--|-----|-----|--3--| --3--|--3--|-----|--3--|-----|--1--| **on A7, you can let all other strings ring except for high-E, it'll sound cool, specially at the end** I was six years old When my parents went away I was stuck inside a broken life I couldn't wish away She was beautiful She had everything and more And my escape was hiding out and running for the door Somebody listen please It used to be so hard being me Living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me Living in a nightmare A never-ending sleep But now that I am wide awake My chains are finally free Don't feel sorry for me All the days collided One less perfect than the next I was stuck inside someone else's life and always second best Oh, I love you now 'cause now I realize That it's safe outside to come alive in my identity So if you're listening There's so much more to me you haven't seen Living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me Living in a nightmare A never-ending sleep But now that I am wide awake My chains are finally free Don't feel sorry for me Mother, sister, father, sister, mother Everything's cool now Mother, sister, father, sister, mother Everything's cool now Oh, my life is good I've got more than anyone should Oh, my life is good And the past is in the past I was living in the shadow Of someone else's dream Trying to find a hand to hold but every touch felt cold to me I'm living in a new day I'm living it for me And now that I am wide awake Then I can finally be Don't feel sorry for me Don't feel sorry, don't feel sorry for me Living in, living in, living in the shadow [arpeggio] Living in, living in, living in a new day --- I might have gotten something wrong, if so, then leave it at the comment box... but try playing along the record, and then try doing it without the record, and you'll see these notes fit better than any others right now at Ultimate-Guitar. --- Home of SYN:
