Shadow of Your LoveGuns N’ Roses

Songwriter: Izzy Stradlin Paul Tobias Axl Rose

Producer: Mike Clink

[Intro]
One, two, one, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Took my changes carelessly
I said I choked on my own cigarette
You can hand me another bottle of whiskey, baby
But ya haven't seen the worst yet

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
I had a woman who had said it was all alright
Now I'm back the only one

[Chorus]
And I ain't standing, never standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Oh no

[Verse 2]
Stole my changes helplessly
I said yeah, but I got no regrets
Money it was on the table
So I booked with all the bets
Living like your livin' ain't so hot
And you ain't my idea
Of a high-rolling shot

[Chorus]
So I ain't standing, I'm never standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Oh no

[Solo]

[Verse 3]
High price calling hanging over your head
I hope you've heard, baby, all I've said
You've gone cold or even misread
No use crying, you're as good as dead

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm reckless, gonna have some fun
I had a woman who had said it was all alright
Now I'm back the only one

[Chorus]
And I ain't standing, never standing
In the shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love
Shadow of your love

[Outro]
Shadow, shadow
Shadow of your love
Oh no

Guns N’ Roses

Guns N' Roses was the most dangerous band in the world in the late 80s and early 90s. Led by singer Axl Rose and stylish guitarist Slash, they mixed the passion of blues, the heaviness of rock, and the attitude of punk, bringing forth a breath of fresh air to a music scene dominated by cheesy hair metal bands.

Their debut album, Appetite for Destruction, is the best selling debut of all-time. They outsold a headlining Aerosmith on their first major tour, released two double albums (Use Your Illusion I & II) simultaneously, and soon would play to audiences in excesses of 20,000 people.

However, cracks started forming in the band, as classic era drummer Steven Adler was fired from the band before the “Use Your Illusion” releases and founding rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin left abruptly during the ensuing tour. They were replaced by Matt Sorum and Gilby Clarke, respectively, with keyboardist Dizzy Reed joining the band and expanding the group’s sound.
