Esus Capo on 4th fret, play in Am7 but I'm using partial chord form for Am7 on 5th fret using only D & G string
In chorus, the Am7 chord is barred on top 4 strings, but G string hammers on a whole step above bar.
Verses: |: Am7 F G :|
Chorus: F G Am7(2) F G Am7(2) F G C (step down to B on A string) F E Am7
Bridge: C (step down to B on A string) F C (step down to B on A string) F E7
I’ve got this make believe dummy made out of my hate
And when we go toe to toe he’s on the losing side of the debate
Yeah, I always win our fights because he is so thick
I’d like to have a challenge but he’s not that quick
Mm-mm – I’m punching at shadows
Mm-mm – I’m fighting nothing
No one here just me and my Strawman
Shadowboxing
Now this dummy in my head, he reminds me of all of these
Other dummies out in the world with half baked ideologies
And I don’t them personally but I know they’re out there
Being wrong all the time, such hypocrites, they don’t care
Mm-mm – I’m punching at shadows
Mm-mm – I’m fighting nothing
No one here just me and my Strawman
Shadowboxing
Get outside your mind get outside your mind get outside your mind
Get outside your mind get outside your mind get outside your mind
Get outside
There’s a voice in my ear who tells me in a way I understand
That the dummy in my head is a danger to the good people in this land
And it’s not enough to argue even though I’m always right
He says there’s a war is coming and we all must prepare to fight
Mm-mm – I’m punching at shadows
Mm-mm – I’m fighting nothing
No one here just me and my Strawman
