[Verse 1]
Am F/A
The planets are shaking their heads at the earth
G Em F
Oh what has become of their sister in blue
Am Fmaj7
Don't be deterred, agent provocateur
G Em F
As you parade while you know someone's aiming at you
Gsus4 G Gsus4 G
People's backstreet ways fall into place
F
Tokens to be found
Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Em
They track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em
Make your choice, they wanna make you raise your voice
Am7 Fsus2
to fight for a change: It's always the same
C Em/B
And what if this life is feeling like a world of bliss to you
F G
And you don't feel like going against the grain today
[Chorus 1]
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
Bm A/C# F#m G
To defy defiance and swallow evil
A Em
Here come the shadow eaters
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
although you shouldn't watch them without safety glasses
Bm A/C# F#m G
They strike at sunrise, Angel squad
A Em
Here come the shadow eaters
[Verse 2]
Am F/A
One hundred seventy five zillion and three thousand eight
G Em F
Hundred and twenty nine lives in history approximately
Am F/A
Laid at the door of Him who never knew and if He did
G Em F
I'm not quite sure that He would quite have agreed
Gsus4 G Gsus4 G
backstreet ways, into place
F
Tokens to be found
Gsus4 G Gsus4 G Em
track down lies, antagonize the decoy
[Pre-Chorus]
C Em
Chase down grief to wallow in and make believe
Am7 Fsus2
You ain't gonna win whatever way: We're all gonna die
C Em/B
Mean and sly, and somewhere in between there's life they say
F G
But if we're not made to overshadow black?
[Chorus 2]
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
Will you ever see them in the blinding light
Bm A/C# F#m G
To defy defiance and conquer evil
A Em
Here come the shadow eaters
Bm G A Em
I believe
G D/F# A
you don't see'em with or without safety glasses
Bm A/C# F#m G
They strike at sunrise, Angel battalion
A Em
Here come the shadow eaters

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