In The Shadow Of The Pines Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I wandered through the shadow of t[G]he pines,
my love, [D]and I
As the wind was blowing
freshly from the [A]sea
When a [D]sudden, fitful darkness
Stole [G]across the summer [D]skies
And the shadow came between
[A]my [D]love and me
[G]Some [D]has[A]ty words were spoken
An[D]d almost unawares,
[A]hasty answers to unthinking anger lays
And [D]our heartfelt bitter lungs,
and our [G]weepings [D]and our prayers
There can make those false
and [A]cruel words [D]unsaid
Come back to me, sweetheart
And love [G]me as be[D]fore
Back, back to me, sweetheart
And leave [E]me never[A]more
[D]In life's dark pathway,
the sun [G]no longer [D]shines
Come love and meet me in the
shad[A]ow of the [D]pines
Well, you took the ring I gave you,
and oh, you cast [G]one glance at [D]me
As you held the jewel trinket in your [A]hand
[D]An d then he turned and tossed it
in the wa[G]ters [D]on the sea
Where the waves were
splashing [A]idly on the [D]sand
[A]You went your way unheeding
the [D]tears I could not hide
[A]You went your way and
not a word was said
And this stub[D]born heart
was breaking
Underneath [G]this mask of [D]pride
And the pine trees sobbed
in [A]pity [D]overhead
Come back to me, sweetheart,
and love [G]me as be[D]fore
Back, back to me, sweetheart,
and leave [E]me never[A]more
In [D]life's dark pathway,
the sun [G]no longer [D]shines
Come love and meet me in
[A]the shadow of the [D]pines
I awake from bitter dreaming,
but to call [G]out your [D]name.
I'll again to dream of you once [A]more
[D]This [A]stu[D]bborn pride has left me
And I'll admit [G]I was to b[D]lame
Forgive me, dear, and love [A]me as be[D]fore
For [A]the future is o 'ershadowed
With the [D]darkness of despair
[A]The joy of life,
love's sun no longer shines
And [D]I'd give this whole world gladly
Once again [G]to meet you [D]there
Reunited in the shad[A]ow of [D]the pines
Come back to me, sweetheart,
and [G]love me as [D]before
Back, back to me, sweetheart,
and [E]leave me never[A]more
[D]In life's dark pathway,
the sun [G]no longer [D]shines
Come love and meet me in
[A]the shadow of the [D]pines

[Outro 1]
You
