“Shadows in The Sunset”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
[C] Look at the dying [G] light,
[F] Shadows cast at the [C] twilight.
[G] Silhouettes dancing [Am] on the walls,
[F] Echoes of laughter in the [G] halls.

(Chorus)
[C] Shadows in the [G] sunset,
[F] Reminders of a love, we’ll [C] never forget.
[G] Oh, it’s the dance of the [Am] known and the unknown,
[F] It’s the beat of a heart that’s [G] fully grown.

(Verse 2)
[C] Our story stitched in [G] time,
[F] A symphony with a perfect [C] rhyme.
[G] We’ve got memories in [Am] black and white,
[F] And a future that’s [G] oh so bright.

(Chorus)
[C] Shadows in the [G] sunset,
[F] Holding onto moments, with no [C] regret.
[G] Oh, it’s the dance of the [Am] familiar and the new,
[F] It’s the rhythm of a love that’s [G] always true.
