I saw the movie Shadowheart (read about it here) and heard this song, and I knew immediately I’d have to learn it. I downloaded it from iTunes and transcribed the lyrics. I’ve included those wonderful lyrics and the chords below. You can read more about this beautiful singer here, and can see her perform the song on YouTube here: As far as I know, no one else has posted these lyrics. I hope you enjoy them. I did receive from Carol Piascik the correct lyrics, which she received from Bisutti. Thank you, Carol! She does this in the key of B. I use G chords, with the capo on the fourth fret of my guitar.
“Shadow of My Heart”

I still remember his words of goodbye
A man must find his reasons and
The seasons have gone by
The church bells echo your ghost inside this canyon still
I fear his fate but dear hold faith
“Come back to me, a while”
(Chorus 1)
The Angels sing from mountains high
A song of old through clear blue sky
Their voices cry out while weʼre apart
And warm the Shadows of my heart
Revenge can summon the darkest knight
Blinding noble kings masquerading wrong from right
I dreamt you rose up from the ashes
Bearing light as dawn fulfills
Return to this place
Redeeming grace
“Come back to you, you will”
(Chorus 2)
The Angels sing from mountains high
A song of old through clear blue sky
Their voices cry out while weʼre apart
And warm the Shadows of my heart.
Here’s the chords:
G C
I still remember his words of goodbye
G D
A man must find a reason and the seasons have gone by
G
The church bells echo
C
Your ghost inside this canyon still
G D
I fear his fate, but dear old faith,
G
Come back to me a while
C G
The Angels sing from mountains high
C G
A song of old through clear blue skies
Am7 (walk up to) C
Their voices cry out while we’re apart.
D G
And warm the shadow of my heart.

I believe the 5th line of Shadow of My Heart should be: I fear this fate, but dear hold faith
Here are the official lyrics- Danielle sent this to me through email:

as I read the lyrics, they seemed familiar, but I couldn’t place it. I clicked on your you tube link and immediately figured it out. I watched that movie a few months ago, had no idea what the name of it was, but re-affirmed that though revenge is a dish best served cold, it should not be frozen.
Would very much like to have piano music of this. Best song I have heard
in a while. As good as it is, it seems to be underrated. I guess just not
enough exposure. Any idea where to get sheet music for piano?
Love the words and music. How can get the piano music for this song?

I adore movie soundtracks with piano scores and theme songs, this one is quite beautiful. I have not yet seen this film, I will this week.
We have the lyrics to the song Shadow of my Heart by Danielle Bistutti but cannot find the chords for it. Are they published anywhere? Thank You, Mack
Is there Piano Music for this song? It is so beautiful!
Beautiful song, loved it. Wish I could get it on CD. Does anyone know where to get it from?
