gimme one of your deadliest guns
gimme two of your hot sticky buns
gimme three or four tickets to the midnight show

gimme five up high, down low too slow

Sharpest knives for the five mid wives
And you were just a dirty orphan
Spending every second of their lives
Boozing on the new endorphin

[bridge1]
Reminds me of the time time took it’s time with me
Reminds me of the time you talked to me

And told me what the rapture was
And how it was all untrue
My pockets only holding dirt and fuzz
but I should be the one to tell you

[bridge2]
Only one out of a hundred teenage vampires
Never gets to feed
And I’ll see you in the corn fed wonderland
Where the clown girls go to bleed
Where the clown girls go to bleed

Gimme one of your deadliest guns
Gimme two of your hot sticky buns
Gimme three or four tickets to the midnight show
Gimme five up high, down low too slow

Drinking drinks and holding a grudge
Against Lady Antebellum
And when you find your self before the judge
You best be prepared to tell them

[bridge2]
Only one out of a hundred circus lions jumps through a hoop for me
And I’ll see you in the mystery public toilet where the teddy bears go to pee
Where to teddy bears go to pee

Gimme one of summer years
Gimme two of three of your living heirs
Gimme four of what ever keeps you alive
Gimme five lover
C’mon and gimme five

C’mon and gimme five, C’mon and gimme five, C’mon and gimme five, Five

Notes: This song is completely barre chords. So all the chords are in the F-shape. The
main riff should be F-shapes on the 7th (B), 5th (A), 3rd (G), and 2nd (F#) frets. It’s
pretty simple.

Those four chords are most of the song, but in the chorus he throws in a C chord
(F-shape on 10th fret) and an E chord (F-shape on 12th). He simplifies the second part
of each
chorus in live versions, but in the studio recording it sounds like he is going back and
forth on the A and G.

Intro: B A G F# (x2)

Verse:
Mr. Shadow,
Ever since you were a boy,
You walked the earth,
In search of every ounce,
Of daylight that you could destroy,
And I feel you,
When I push people down the stairs,
I like the small fleeting power that I feel,
When I catch them unawares,
Woah-oh-oh

Chorus:

Dreams come and dreams go,
But there’s just one nightmare,
It’s the one where all the winds blow,
And there’s fiery ash in the air,
And Mr. Shadow’s always there,
Mr. Shadow’s always there,

Verse 2:

Behind every dark curtain,
And every dying tree,
He’s in the final breath you take,
When you’re drowning in the lake because of me,

And he hides,
He hides in broad daylight,
And if you stare directly into him,
He’ll surely play a trick upon your sight,
Whoa whoa ohh,

Chorus 2:

Daylight comes and daylight goes,
But it’s always dark somewhere,
And if you know what the hangman knows,
You know that death is everywhere,
And Mr. Shadow doesn’t care,
Mr. Shadow doesn’t care,

Bridge:

Human rights and celebrities,
Can’t do anything to stop him,
When he goes to take his bites out of you and me,

Verse 3:

Mr. Shadow,
Tell me now is it true,
You give us six more weeks of sorrow,
When some Punxsutawney dog sees you,

What makes the people around here so great
They focus all their energy on things they hate
World keeps turning but them’s the breaks
I just bought a couple more Ohama steaks

And know
Love’s just a stones throw
Away from all we know

Where was this waltz when we needed it most
Beautiful girls turn into beautiful ghosts
I always saw this coming but I’m not here to boast
I lost a couple teeth eating Texas toast

And do you know what really sucks about this day
This day will never go away

You took me to a place you never went yourself
It’s a little late but lets drink to your health
Water’s getting ready dripping down your legs
Bought your last chicken in the dragons eggs

Make some noise in your own way
All your friends are my friends today
