Backstory:
Narrow Expert originated from the small town of Evergreen, Oregon in 2007. The band consists of five members; lead vocalist Jonah Armstrong, lead guitarist Eli Brandt, drummer Owen Harper, bassist Holden Graves, and keyboardist Ian Spencer. The band was initially formed during their high school years, where their shared love for music led to the formation of the group. Despite all coming from different musical backgrounds, the band quickly established a particular sound that was uniquely theirs.
The band struggled in its early years, playing gigs in local bars and recording demos in Armstrong’s garage. However, things took a turn when their self-released EP caught the attention of a prominent music producer in 2009. Since then, Narrow Expert has released three studio albums, each more successful than the last. They’ve toured the country, playing at some of the biggest music festivals, and have become renowned for their electrifying live performances.

Title:
“Dancing Shadows”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] I see your [G] ghost in the [Em] morning light,
[D] Dancing shadows in my [C] sight.
[C] I reach out, but [G] you’re not [Em] there,
[D] Empty echoes, it’s just [C] not fair.
(Verse 2)
[C] The memories [G] of you are [Em] all I have,
[D] A silent movie, a [C] broken laugh.
[C] I wish I could [G] turn back [Em] time,
[D] So your hand could be in [C] mine.
(Chorus)
[G] Dancing shadows on the [D] wall,
[Em] It’s like you’re not gone [C] at all.
[G] In the silence of the [D] night,
[Em] I hold on to your [C] light.
(Verse 3)
[C] I carry [G] your love in [Em] my heart,
[D] Even though we’re worlds [C] apart.
[C] Every sunrise, [G] every [Em] dusk,
[D] Your absence is a [C] silent hush.
(Chorus)
[G] Dancing shadows on the [D] wall,
[Em] It’s like you’re not gone [C] at all.
[G] In the silence of the [D] night,
[Em] I hold on to your [C] light.
