Biography:
Hawkwind is an English rock band and one of the earliest space rock groups. The band was formed by ex-busker and blues man Dave Brock in Ladbroke Grove, London, who intended to marry simple three-chord rock with experimental electronic music. He cites his influences for the band at the time as The Moody Blues, Steve Miller Band and the krautrock scene of Kraftwerk, Neu! and particularly Can.
The band was formed in 1969 by visionary Dave Brock and although it has been subject to numerous line-up changes it is still led by him.

From: "David Weingart"
This is the same key as on the album (PXR5, which a friend of mine who
was a cinema major way back when tells me is a type of movie film).
There's an intstrumental part between the second and third verses, which
I don't have the chords to. Anyone want to tackle it?
Title: Jack of Shadows
Artist: Hawkwind
A G
Jack of Shadows, nocturnal outlaw
C D
Daemon of darkness, brother to the night
A D
Jack of Shadows, what's he hanging out for?
C D
King of the dimensions, the other side of light
E F G
And when he passes
E F G
He casts shades of mystery black
E F G
Flowing like molasses
A G
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
E
To the kindom of thieves
D C B A
Before the skies crack
Jack of Shadows, cloak of constellations
Draped around his body, blanking out his face
Jack of Shadows, don't believe in God, he
Steals from the future, fades without a trace
And when the flames flare
Flickering forms of velvet dark
He plays his games there
It's only Jack of Shadows, he's lit up by a spark
To run into the umbra as fast as a shark
Jack of Shadows, ultraviolet eyesight
Giving him the vision, that cats-eye infrared
Jack of Shadows, watch him as he flies right
Through all of the umbras, quicker than the dead
And when he passes
He casts shades of mystery black
Flowing like molasses
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
To the kindom of thieves
Before the skies crack
A G E D C B A
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
