[Verse 1]
Bm G/B
The planets are shaking their heads at the earth
A F#m G
Oh what has become of their sister in blue
Bm Gmaj7
Don't be deterred, agent provocateur
A F#m G
As you parade while you know someone's aiming at you
Asus4 A Asus4 A
People's backstreet ways fall into place
G
Tokens to be found
Asus4 A Asus4 A F#m
They track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
D F#m
Make your choice, they wanna make you raise your voice
Bm7 Gsus2
to fight for a change: It's always the same
D F#m/C#
And what if this life is feeling like a world of bliss to you
G A
And you don't feel like going against the grain today
[Chorus 1]
C#m A B F#m
I believe
A E/G# B
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
C#m B/D# G#m A
To defy defiance and swallow evil
B F#m
Here come the shadow eaters
C#m A B F#m
I believe
A E/G# B
although you shouldn't watch them without safety glasses
C#m B/D# G#m A
They strike at sunrise, Angel squad
B F#m
Here come the shadow eaters
[Verse 2]
Bm G/B
One hundred seventy five zillion and three thousand eight
A F#m G
Hundred and twenty nine lives in history approximately
Bm G/B
Laid at the door of Him who never knew and if He did
A F#m G
I'm not quite sure that He would quite have agreed
Asus4 A Asus4 A
backstreet ways, into place
G
Tokens to be found
Asus4 A Asus4 A F#m
track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
D F#m
Chase down grief to wallow in and make believe
Bm7 Gsus2
You ain't gonna win whatever way: We're all gonna die
D F#m/C#
Mean and sly, and somewhere in between there's life they say
G A
But if we're not made to overshadow black?
[Chorus 2]
C#m A B F#m
I believe
A E/G# B
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
C#m B/D# G#m A
To defy defiance and conquer evil
B F#m
Here come the shadow eaters
C#m A B F#m
I believe
A E/G# B
you don't see'em with or without safety glasses
C#m B/D# G#m A
They strike at sunrise, Angel battalion
B F#m
Here come the shadow eaters

[Chorus 3]
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
Don't think you'll ever see them with your naked eye
D#m C#/F A#m B
And they're tired of showing off on demand
C# G#m
They are shadow eaters
D#m B C# G#m
I believe
B F#/A# C#
although we never see them, cause they fly from reason
D#m C#/F A#m B C#
Tiny but forceful, I tell you
G#m
Those shadow eaters
