Interesting facts and trivia about Shadow Days - Acoustic. By Songfacts®.

Over the two years following the release of his Battle Studies album, John Mayer experienced a number of difficulties, including a backlash following a controversial Playboy interview and throat surgery for a granuloma near his vocal chord. "My shadow days are over," he sings in this country-tinged song reflecting the hope that his bad times are over.

The song was co-produced by Don Was, who as one half of Was (Not Was) found commercial success in the 1980s. Since then he has received multiple Grammy Awards for his production work including Producer of the Year in 1995.

American pianist and keyboardist Chuck Leavell, formerly of the Allman Brothers Band, plays on this track. He also worked with The Rolling Stones throughout the '80s.
