[Verse 1]
C#m A/C#
The planets are shaking their heads at the earth
B G#m A
Oh what has become of their sister in blue
C#m Amaj7
Don't be deterred, agent provocateur
B G#m A
As you parade while you know someone's aiming at you
Bsus4 B Bsus4 B
People's backstreet ways fall into place
A
Tokens to be found
Bsus4 B Bsus4 B G#m
They track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
E G#m
Make your choice, they wanna make you raise your voice
C#m7 Asus2
to fight for a change: It's always the same
E G#m/D#
And what if this life is feeling like a world of bliss to you
A B
And you don't feel like going against the grain today
[Chorus 1]
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
D#m C#/F A#m B
To defy defiance and swallow evil
C# G#m
Here come the shadow eaters
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
although you shouldn't watch them without safety glasses
D#m C#/F A#m B
They strike at sunrise, Angel squad
C# G#m
Here come the shadow eaters
[Verse 2]
C#m A/C#
One hundred seventy five zillion and three thousand eight
B G#m A
Hundred and twenty nine lives in history approximately
C#m A/C#
Laid at the door of Him who never knew and if He did
B G#m A
I'm not quite sure that He would quite have agreed
Bsus4 B Bsus4 B
backstreet ways, into place
A
Tokens to be found
Bsus4 B Bsus4 B G#m
track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
E G#m
Chase down grief to wallow in and make believe
C#m7 Asus2
You ain't gonna win whatever way: We're all gonna die
E G#m/D#
Mean and sly, and somewhere in between there's life they say
A B
But if we're not made to overshadow black?
[Chorus 2]
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
D#m C#/F A#m B
To defy defiance and conquer evil
C# G#m
Here come the shadow eaters
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
you don't see'em with or without safety glasses
D#m C#/F A#m B
They strike at sunrise, Angel battalion
C# G#m
Here come the shadow eaters

Fm C# D# A#m
I believe
C# G#/C D#
Don't think you'll ever see them with your naked eye
Fm D#/G Cm C#
And they're tired of showing off on demand
D# A#m
They are shadow eaters
Fm C# D# A#m
I believe
C# G#/C D#
although we never see them, cause they fly from reason
Fm D#/G Cm C# D#
Tiny but forceful, I tell you
A#m
Those shadow eaters
