Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Every evening [Am]when the sun goes
down I [Dm]sit here in my [Am]room
And the lamplight streaming over
me project[E]s my lonely g[Am]loom
My [C]counterpart in agony
[F]mocks each tear that [E]falls
And [Am]I cast a lonesome shadow on these [Dm]lonely,
[E]lonely [Am]walls

[Verse 2]
[Am]
He's always by my side at night
no mat[Dm]ter where I [Am]go
He lurks out in the darkness
or [E]in the neon's[Am]glow
He [C]follows me across the steps
and [F]up and down the [E]hall
And I [Am]cast a lonesome shadow on these [Dm]lonely,
[E]lonely [Am]walls

[Interlude 1]
[Am][E][Am]

[Verse 3]
I [Am]sit and watch the candle and
the [Dm]flicker of the [Am]flame
My writhing shadow twists and
turns as [E]though it is in [Am]pain
I'm [C]trying to escape the
[F]memory my mind [E]recalls
And I [Am]cast a lonesome shadow on these [Dm]lonely,
[E]lonely [Am]walls

[Verse 4]
[Am]
The image of a love I lost and
[Dm]all the things I'd p[Am]lanned
Are as empty as this bottle
that [E]I hold in my h[Am]and
My [C]soul is buried in the depths
of [F]love and life's pit[E]falls
And [Am]I cast [D]a l[Am]onesome shadow
on these lonely, [E]lonely walls
[Am]

[Verse 5]
I cast a lonesome shadow on these [F]lonely,
[Dm]lone[E]ly walls
[Am][Am]
