From the recording David and Lezlie
Lyrics
Shadow Crown (Capo on 5th fret in C)
G C
We’ll be leaving tonight when the stoplights start to blink.
G C-G D
We’ll take the south road that leads out of town.
G C
We’ll be light on our feet. We’ll be dusted in gold.
G D G
We’ll be wearing our shadow crowns.
When I first saw your face, you were shuttered and locked,
Like a dust storm had left your soul broken down.
When you first held my hand, a wild river raged
And we were dreaming of our shadow crowns.
Can you feel my heart break when you can’t hold your tears,
When the cold wind from last winter lingers on?
Can you feel my love grow like a vine circled ‘round
Weaving sunshine into a shadow crown?
Verse one
We’ll be wearing our shadow crowns.
