The Shade Of Fear(Chords)

	        

Verse 1:
G 
We're rusted into shape and sinking into dark 
Em 
Holding onto emerald hearts and hoping for a spark 
           G 
It's the faded memories, but the chill of feeling fine 
           Em 
It's the falling into madness, but I do this all the time 


           C      D   G 
It's the cannot carry on 
          C        D          G 
It's the shade of fear, she said 
           C         D        Em 
It's the silk line torn to shreds 
           C                    D 
It's the weight of the rosary beads ?round your head 
          G                     Em 
It's the size of the monsters' eyes under your bed 
          C        D          G 
It's the shade of fear, she said 


Verse 2:
G 
Breaking into pieces, picking up the shards 
Em 
Laying them on ruby beds and cherishing the open scars 
G 
A fitting eulogy for the burning of the songs 
          Em 
It's the sacred art of breaking down, you've known this all along 


           C      D   G 
It's the cannot carry on 
          C        D          G 
It's the shade of fear, she said 
           C         D        Em 
It's the silk line torn to shreds 
           C                    D 
It's the weight of the rosary beads ?round your head 
          G                     Em 
It's the size of the monsters' eyes under your bed 
          C        D          G 
It's the shade of fear, she said
