Title:
“Chasing Shadows”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C]Sitting on the edge of the [G]day,
[Am]Staring at the setting [Em]sun,
[D]Chasing shadows as they [F]run.
[C]Wondering where you’ve [G]gone,
[Am]In the silence of the [Em]dusk,
[D]Our story slowly [F]unspun.
(Chorus)
[C]Chasing shadows in the [G]dark,
[Am]Trying to find a [Em]spark,
[D]Of the love we used to [F]share.
[C]Holding onto memories [G]bitter-sweet,
[Am]In the rhythm of our [Em]heartbeats,
[D]Echoing in the cold [F]night air.
(Verse 2)
[C]Walking down the familiar [G]streets,
[Am]Where we used to laugh and [Em]dance,
[D]Lost in a distant [F]trance.
[C]Feeling your shadow in the [G]breeze,
[Am]Whispering sweet [Em]nothings,
[D]In the echoes of the [F]trees.
(Chorus)
[C]Chasing shadows in the [G]dark,
[Am]Trying to capture a [Em]spark,
[D]Of the love we used to [F]share.
[C]Holding onto memories [G]bitter-sweet,
[Am]Feeling the rhythm of our [Em]heartbeats,
[D]Echoing in the cold [F]night air.
