Shadows In the Moonlight – Tommy Shaw
If you want to play in tune with the song CAPO 5
G Dm
She was raised in Kentucky in a good christian home
F C G
they had plans for her future that to them were carved in stone
G Dm
he came from West Virginia to work down at the mill
F C G Am
from his tiny window he could see her house up on the hill
G Dm
the first time that he saw her she was in her Sunday dress
F C G
he came to church in his working clothes trying to look his best
G Dm
somewhere between the sermon and the congregation's rise
F C G
they caught a crystal vision of their future
Am
in each other's eyes
{Chorus}
F C
Across that big sandy river, what's done has been done
G Am
No one knows who we are, no one knows where we're from
F C
We'll raise up a family, we'll build us a home
G E7 Am
but tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight
G Dm
Her father heard a ladder land against the bedroom wall
F C G
came outside waving a pistol yelling “leave my child alone!”
G Dm
she ran for the wagon while they struggled for the gun
F C G
it went off, like a cannon, someone cried
Am
my God, what have I done
{Chorus}(1X) then to
F C
Across that big sandy river, what's done has been done
G Am
No one knows who we are, no one knows where we're from
F C
And I hope there'll be forgiveness in the days yet to come
G E7 Am
but tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight
G E7 Am
yes tonight, we're just shadows in the moonlight.
