4. Song lyrics with Chord Progression
(Verse: Am, G, F, E)
Aye, there’s a tale in this town I’ve been found,
Of the love that was lost and the sorrow that’s bound.
And it flows through the streets like a sorrowful sound,
Oh, the tale of a heart that’s been ground.
(Chorus: F, G, Am, E)
Whiskey in hand, I stand at the bar,
Drowning the pain, no matter how far.
For in every glass, a reflection I see,
Of the love that once was and will never be.
(Verse)
The moon casts a shadow, the night paints it black,
And I’m haunted by a love that will never come back.
In the wind’s mournful wail and the rain’s relentless attack,
I find solace in the pain, in the love that I lack.
(Chorus)
Whiskey in hand, I’m lost in the stars,
Seeking the answer in every scar.
For in every drink, a ghost I see,
Of the love that once was and will never be.
