Intro A D G x 4
A D G
Well, you know your time has come
A D G
And you're sorry for what you've done
D A D G
You should've never been playing with a gun in those complicated shadows
A D G
Well, there's a line that you must toe
A D G
And it will soon be time to go
D A D G A D
But it's darker than you know in those complicated shadows
G D
All you gangsters and rude clowns, Who were shooting up the town
E A D G A D
When you should've found someone to put the blame on
G D
Though the fury's hot and hard, I still see that cold graveyard
E
There's a solitary stone that's got your name on

A D G
You don't have to take it from me
A D G
But I know of what I spake
A D G
You think you're like iron and steel
E A D G A D G
But iron and steel will bend and break in these complicated shadows
No... (solo) A D G x3 A D
G D
Sometimes justice, you will find, Is just dumb not color blind
E A D G A D
And your poor shattered mind can't take it all in
G D
All those phantoms and their shades, Should jump up on Judgement Day
E
And say to the Almighty "I'm still stinking of sin"
A D G
But the jury was dismissed
A D G
Took his neck and they gave it a twist
D A D G A D
So you see, you won't be missed in those complicated shadows
A D G
You can say just what you like
A D G
In a voice like a John Ford film
A D G
Take the law into your hands
D A D G
And you will soon get tired of killing in those complicated shadows
