Shadows

Em C G D Em C G D Em Started down the road a long, long while C At sixty-five miles she cracked me a smile G D And told me, I'm not to blame Em But those dark and stormy skies, reflected in your eyes C Always bring me back to those tiny, little lies G D That you told me, that kept him safe Em Now you put your hands together and pray like its mass C Its only thirty days until he gets another pass G D But he blamed me, and left you crying C Em When the banshee calls, she calls a screamin' D Em She's here to take one more away before their time of leaving C Em And though snow and God cast shadows D Em Started with your eyes, and dig until your mind lay fallowed Em The soldier sings a song in the middle of the night C Singing, goes out get drunk and starts a fight G D That he loses. Picks his teeth up off the street Em There's a needle on the table, and bottle by his bed C And I listen to the words that echoed in his head G D And he told me, why he's going away Em Well its dark inside the gloom, the one he calls his room C And hell this ain't a home, well he's making it a tomb G D So he asked me, if we could leave tonight C Em When the banshee calls, she calls a screamin' D Em She's here to take one more away before their time of leaving C Em And though snow and God cast shadows D Em Started with your eyes, and dig until your mind lay fallowed Banjo, Mandolin & Guitar Solos N.C.
