[A]
Coldly, that's all you've [Em] got to say
[A] Coldly, hurt me and [G#] turn away
You [C#m] say, oh, not [G#m] somehow
[A] I'm resolved to what [F#m] is next
I head [A] for the shadow
[F#m] [B]
[A] Coldly, taking it [Em] back, the tears
[A] You've told me, slowly [G#] confess your fear
But [C#m] I've got myself [G#m] to protect
It's [A] too soon for me to [F#m] forget
I'll wait [A] in the shadows
In
[Em]
[D] the shadows, where I am [C#m] alone
[D] They help me see that I'm [C#m] finally on [F#] the right
[E]
[A]
[Em]
[A]
[G#] So [C#m] until I truly [G#m] believe
That [A] your words convey what [F#m] you mean
I'll wait [A] in the shadows
I'll wait [Em] in the shadows
I don't [D] mind the shadows
[A]
