BLUES SHADOW

THOSE EARLY ACOUSTIC DAYS
WERE CLEARLY THE ORIGIN
UNTIL FENDER AND GIBSON
TOOK THE STEPS TO GET PLUGGED IN
THE SOUND THEY BOTH CREATED
WOULD LET SOMETHING NEW BEGIN
DIFFERENT STYLES HAVE COME AND GONE
THOUGH SOMETHING'S REMAINED WITHIN

(CHORUS)

FROM THOSE EARLY DAYS
WE'VE LIVED IN A BLUES SHADOW
A BLUES SHADOW
IT'S TRUE THAT SOME THINGS ARE JUST BUILT TO LAST
THOUGH SOME THINGS HAVE CHANGED
WE'RE STILL IN A BLUES SHADOW
A BLUES SHADOW
SOMETIMES IT'S GOOD TO HANG ON TO THE PAST

SONG THEMES HAVE REMAINED THE SAME
MOSTLY AFFAIRS OF THE HEART
WE JUST HAVE TO FIND NEW WAYS
TO KEEP THEM STATE OF ART
WE SING OF LOSING IT ALL
TRYING TO MAKE A NEW START
STILL SEEMS THAT DEVIL WOMAN
IS TEARING IT ALL APART

(CHORUS)

NEW AND OLD WORKING IN HARMONY
IT'S NOT HARD TO SEE THAT THAT’S THE KEY

(SOLO)

THOUGH IT'S KEPT CLOSE TO THOSE ROOTS
IT'S STILL GROWN A BRAND NEW SKIN
ALTHOUGH THOSE CHANGES ARE THERE
CLEAR TO SEE THEY'RE NEXT OF KIN

(CHORUS TILL FADE)
