Title: “Moonshine Serenade”

Full Song Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
(A) Down in the bayou, under the Spanish moss,
(D) Stella with her moonshine, feeling quite the loss.
(A) Whispers in the wind, telling tales of old,
(D) Her heart was once fiery, now it’s just cold.

[Chorus]
(E) Oh, Stella don’t you cry,
(A) Underneath that moonlit sky.
(D) Here’s a moonshine serenade,
(A) To guide you through the everglade.

[Verse 2]
(A) The river flows gently, carrying her dreams,
(D) She’s lost in the echoes of the silent screams.
(A) Her tears are like diamonds, glistening in the night,
(D) In the depth of her sorrow, she’s a stunning sight.

[Chorus]
(E) Oh, Stella don’t you weep,
(A) For the secrets you couldn’t keep.
(D) Here’s a moonshine serenade,
(A) To remind you of the love you made.

[Bridge]
(F#m) Let the moonshine serenade,
(E) Heal the scars of the charade.
(D) Listen to its gentle whisper,
(A) Let it be your heart’s sister.

[Chorus]
(E) Oh, Stella find your way,
(A) With the break of each new day.
(D) Here’s a moonshine serenade,
(A) To help you from feeling dismayed.
