Years later, they brought their shared nostalgia to the world of music, forming a band that told musical tales of intrigue and mystery.
Genre:
Pitiful Investigation is a band best known for their blend of Alternative Rock and Indie Folk, with a lyrical emphasis on narratives that echo their childhood love for detective stories.
Title:
“The Hound’s Howl”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am – C – G – D
Lost in the whispers of the nightfall’s tale,
The Hound’s howl echoes, we’re on its trail,
Follow the clues, in shadows, we sail,
In the dead of the night, justice shall prevail.
(Chorus)
F – C – G
The Hound’s Howl, a melody in the night,
A tune of justice, shining so bright,
In this pitiful investigation, we find our light,
We’re chasing the truth, with all our might.
(Verse 2)
Am – C – G – D
Down the alleyways, under the star’s veil,
Through the misty fog, against the gale,
We are the seekers, we shall not fail,
In the Hound’s Howl, we narrate our tale.
(Chorus)
F – C – G
The Hound’s Howl, a symphony of the unseen,
A song of courage, woven in the night’s sheen,
In this pitiful investigation, we’re sharp and keen,
Unraveling mysteries, in landscapes serene.
