Full Song Lyrics:
Verse 1: (G-C-D-Em)
In a world of midnight madness, (G)
Wear the crown of endless sadness, (C)
Painted faces, empty gazes, (D)
Lost in the labyrinth of mazes. (Em)
Chorus: (C-D-G-Em)
Chasing shadows, we don’t know the cost (C),
In the echoes, something’s always lost. (D)
In the silence, find the light inside, (G)
Chasing shadows through the endless night. (Em)
Verse 2: (G-C-D-Em)
In the corridors of the mind, (G)
Seek and you shall never find. (C)
Echoes of a distant laughter, (D)
Chasing dreams, forever after. (Em)
Chorus: (C-D-G-Em)
Chasing shadows, we don’t know the cost, (C)
In the echoes, something’s always lost. (D)
In the silence, find the light inside, (G)
Chasing shadows through the endless night. (Em)
