Version 2Standing In The Shadows Of Love: The Four Tops: #1 in '66. Capo 1 [Intro] Am Am/G Standing in the shadows of love, Fmaj7 E E7 I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come, Am Am/G Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love? Fmaj7 E E7 I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come. [Verse 1] F Gm C I'd run but there's nowhere to go, F Gm C Cause heartaches will follow me, I know. F Gm C Without your love, the love I need, F Gm C It's the beginning of the end for me. Dsus4 Dm Cause you've taken away all me reasons for livin’ A Bm7 When you pushed aside all the love I've been giving. Now wait a minute... [Pre-Chorus] Am Didn't I teach you right, now baby, didn't I? Didn't I do the best I could, now, didn't I? So don't you leave me...(plus) [Chorus] Am Am/G Standing in the shadows of love, Fmaj7 E E7 I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come, Am Am/G Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love? Fmaj7 E E7 I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come. [Verse 2] F Gm C All alone I'll desperately be, F Gm C with misery my only company, F Gm C It might come today, in fact, come tomorrow, F Gm C But for sure I ain't got nothin' but sorrow. Dsus4 Dm Don't your conscience bother you? A Bm7 How can you watch me cry after all I've done for you? Now hold on a minute... [Pre-Chorus] Am Gave you all the love I had, now didn't I? When you needed me I was always there, now wasn't I? [Chorus] Am Am/G Standing in the shadows of love, Fmaj 7 E E7 I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come, I'm trying not to cry out loud, F Gm C you know cryin' ain't gonna help me now. Dsus 4 Dm What did I do to cause all this grief? A Bm7 Now what'd I say to make you want to leave? Now wait a minute... [Outro] Am Am/G Standing in the shadows of love, Fmaj7 E E7 I’m getting ready for the heartaches to come, Am Am/G Can't you see me standing in the shadows of love? Fmaj7 E E7 I'm getting ready for the heartaches to come.
