A#m                       F#
Stood at the cold face, stood with
                 C#
our backs to the sun
A#m                     F#
I can’t remember being nothing
                  C#
but fearless and young
A#m                       F#               C#
We’ve become echoes, but echoes that fade away
       A#m                F#
We fall into the dark as we dive
           C#
under the wave (I heard you say)

Chorus:
                  F#
Devil’s on your shoulder
                  D#m
Strangers in your head
                    G#
As if you don’t remember
                   F#
As if you can’t forget
                  F#
It’s only been a moment
                  D#m
It’s only been a lifetime
                       G#
But tonight you’re a stranger
          A#m F#
Some silhouette

Let's go out in flames so everyone knows who we are
'Cause these city walls never knew
that we'd make it this far
We've become echoes, but echoes are
fadin' away
So let's dance like two shadows,
burning out a glory day

Chorus:
Devil's on your shoulder
Strangers in your head
As if you don't remember
As if you can forget
It's only been a moment
It's only been a lifetime
But tonight you're a stranger (Silhouette)
Some silhouette (Silhouette)

         F#     C#
And just hold me
         D#m    A#m
And just hold me
         F#     C#
And just hold me
         D#m    A#m
And just hold me

Chorus:
Devil's on your shoulder (Silhouette, ah-ah)
Strangers in your head (Silhouette, ah)
As if you don't remember (Silhouette, ah-ah)
As if you can forget (Silhouette, ah)
It's only been a moment (Silhouette, ah-ah)
It's only been a lifetime (Silhouette, ah)
But tonight you're a stranger (Silhouette, ah-ah)
Some silhouette (Silhouette, ah)
It's only been a moment (Silhouette, ah-ah)
It's only been a lifetime (Silhouette, ah)
But tonight you're a stranger (Silhouette, ah-ah)
Some silhouette (Silhouette, ah)
But tonight you're a stranger (Silhouette, ah-ah)
Some silhouette (Silhouette, ah)

(Silhouette, ah-ah)
(Silhouette, ah)
