Shadows in My Room – Nick Forster
Heather – Lead Vocal / Shannon – Guitar and Harmony Vocal / Ron I. – Mandolin / Justin – Banjo Ron S. – Fiddle / Tracy - Bass / Cliff - Harmony Vocal
I’ve been a big Hot Rize fan for years so being able to cover one of their tunes is a real treat. We added a small chord change but tried to keep the same feel they had. This is a really grooving tune that Justin drills the kickoff on. Great instrumentation all around and great singing on Heather’s part!!

SHADOWS IN MY ROOM
Nick Forster --
Verse 1
Daylight I’m doing fine / though you’re gone I don’t mind
When the sun goes down / I’m all alone with the shadows in my room
Gone is the life I knew so well / In its place I feel your spell
They were always here / but I never felt those shadows in my room
CHORUS I hear your voice softly call / I listen but it’s gone
Then the feeling I recall when you were mine and mine alone
I think I’ll go away from here / leave this house and all my past
Somewhere new that I might lose these shadows in my room
Verse 2
Maybe tonight things’ll change Home alone won’t seem so strange
And though I try I just can’t hide from the shadows in my room
CHORUS So tonight I’m gonna go out change my point of view
I’m not looking for another just to free ----- myself from you
I think I’ll go away from here leave this house and all my past
Somewhere new that I might lose these shadows in my room
