Shadow Blues – Laura Veirs
By Harriet Harding, Sydney, Australia
Every Bbm can be Bbm7, but it isn’t as beautiful if you do it all the time! Boring!
And, just incase you don’t know Gb is the same as F#.. Ab is the same as G# etc!
Bbm
There's a shadow beneath the sea
Ab Bbm
There's a shadow between you and me
Bbm
I've learned that love is scared of light
Ab Gb
Thousand seeds from a flower
Bbm
Blowing through the night
Bbm
Your blackened kiss on my cheek
Ab Bbm
Your blackened kiss runs river deep
A stranded fish dear, i'm on the sand
Ab Gb
Blue water from a pool
Bbm
Up to the clouds i'll land
Bbm
Though i am dark ‘bout the whys of wanting
Ab Bbm
Though i am dark, i'm still a child
Bbm Ebm7 Bbm Ebm7
Gonna dig a coal mine, climb down deep inside
Ab Gb
Where my shadow's got one place to go
Bbm
One place to hide…
