Chords with lyrics
Shadows In the Moonlight ? Tommy Shaw
If you want to play in tune with the song CAPO 5
G+G DmDm
She was raised in Kentucky in a good christian home
FF C majorC G+G
they had plans for her future that to them were carved in stone
G+G DmDm
he came from West Virginia to work down at the mill
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
from his tiny window he could see her house up on the hill
G+G DmDm
the first time that he saw her she was in her Sunday dress
FF C majorC G+G
he came to church in his working clothes trying to look his best
G+G DmDm
somewhere between the sermon and the congregation's rise
FF C majorC G+G
they caught a crystal vision of their future
A minorAm
in each other's eyes
Chorus
FF C majorC
Across that big sandy river, what's done has been done
G+G A minorAm
No one knows who we are, no one knows where we're from
FF C majorC
We'll raise up a family, we'll build us a home
G+G E7E7 A minorAm
but tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight
G+G DmDm
Her father heard a ladder land against the bedroom wall
FF C majorC G+G
came outside waving a pistol yelling ?leave my child alone!?
G+G DmDm
she ran for the wagon while they struggled for the gun
FF C majorC G+G
it went off, like a cannon, someone cried
A minorAm
my God, what have I done
Chorus(1X) then to
FF C majorC
Across that big sandy river, what's done has been done
G+G A minorAm
No one knows who we are, no one knows where we're from
FF C majorC
And I hope there'll be forgiveness in the days yet to come
G+G E7E7 A minorAm
but tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight
G+G E7E7 A minorAm
yes tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight.
