Shoreline Chords

[Verses]
Em               G        D
ever since I was eight or nine 
C                         G    D
I've been standing on the shoreline 
    Em                    G  D
for all my life I've been waiting 
C             G  D
for something lasting 
    Em                
you loose your hunger 
         G          D
and you loose your way  
    C                
you get confused and 
          G     D
then you fade away 
 
 
C  G    D
oh this town 
G         D            Em
kills you when you are young 
C  G    D
oh this town 
G         D            Em
kills you when you are young

[Verses]
    Em                 G       D
I'm not the boy that I used to be 
C                     G        D
this town has got the youth of me 
Em                G   D
all the eyes turn hollow 
C                G   D
from the work of sorrow 
 
Am C D
 
G        Em
 you die young  
                    D
you die when you're young 
                    Am
you die when you're young 
 
C D
 
G          Em
 we are shadows 
         D
oh we're shadows 
                     Am
we're shadows in the alley

       Em              G    D
you're standing on the paving 
C             G    D
by the office building 
Em                  G  D
they've got so much to do 
C              G D
never time for you 
 
Am C D
 
G        Em
 you die young 
                   D
you die when you're young 
                   Am
you die when you're young 
 
C D
 
G          Em
 we are shadows 
         D
oh we're shadows 
                     Am
just shadows in the alley 
 
C D
 
G            Em
 I've got nothing 
           D
nothing to wait for 
           Am
nothing to wait for 
 
C D
 
G Em D Am C D
 
G         Em
 where is life 
        D
in this town 
                      Am
where is life in this town
