Backstory:
Horrible Regret, an indie-rock band, was formed in a small town in Vermont in the summer of 2012. The founding members, lead vocalist and guitarist Max Adler and bassist Pete Mulligan, were childhood friends who shared a deep passion for music. They spent countless hours in Max’s garage, experimenting with different sounds and writing heartfelt, brutally honest lyrics that reflected their life experiences. After adding drummer Sam Booker and keyboardist Lily Chen to the lineup, Horrible Regregt was complete. Their music quickly gained a following in their town, and soon they were playing in different cities across the country.

Genre: Indie-Rock

Title: “Chasing Shadows”

Full song lyrics:

Verse 1: (C G Am F)
In the backstreets, under the neon lights,
Chasing shadows, running through the night.
Lost souls, finding our way,
In the music, we find our escape.

Chorus: (F C G Am)
Chasing shadows, we can’t find the light.
In the echo of a love, we’ve lost sight.
Through the heartache, through the pain,
In the chorus of our songs, we remain.

Verse 2: (C G Am F)
Beneath the stars, in the cold night air,
Strumming chords on a guitar, lost in despair.
Broken dreams, scattered on the floor,
In the rhythm of our heartbeats, we endure.

Chorus: (F C G Am)
Chasing shadows, in the misty dawn.
In the silence, we find a song.
Through the sorrow, through the regret,
In the harmony of our voices, we forget.

Bridge: (Am F C G)
We’re just dreamers, lost in the sound,
In melodies, our salvation is found.

Chorus: (F C G Am)
Chasing shadows, in a world gone astray.
In the lyrics, we find our way.
Through the turmoil, through the threat,
In the rhythm of our music, we reset.
