Not sure of the third chord here, sounds close as a at 8th fret.

Intro: D/F/C/G (riff pattern)

I’m being followed by my shadow; he’s been creeping around,
asking where I’ve been
He keeps tapping on my shoulder, telling me its over,
so where do I begin?

(riff pattern with extra notes)

These dark days are getting harder, I feel I’m treading water,
so will sink or swim?
Roll on, push a little further, I keep saying is this worth it,
or should I just give in? I don’t know..

D F C G (palm muted)
I don’t know which way I’m supposed to spin, in this circle
And I won’t waste my time on your concern, till its over

Solo: D/C/G/G

I look back on a distant border, I fear I’m getting older, There’s so much that I missed
Walk on following a faint line, see if I can define, where I came undone

D F C G (palm muted)
I don’t know which way I’m supposed to spin, in this circle
And I won’t waste my time on your concern,till it’s over
And I will wait my turn, my time will come, This ain’t over
And I can’t wait no more, no sweet return, This is over

D C C(8th) G
So it is – No sweet return, So it is – No sweet return
So it is – No sweet return, So it is – No sweet return

This is over….

D/F/C/G similar to into riff pattern.Finish with D chord.
