[Verse 1]
E G#
Put down my backpack and take off my shoes
F# G#
The journey was good but your knees are still bruised
E G#
Oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
F# E C#
You're a shadow with nobody there
A G#7 G#m F#7
And the harvest moon, shimmering, melted in two
F#7 E C#
And poured silver rain into the stream
A G#7 G#m F#7
Where i crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
F#7 G#m C#
As the universe loosened its sea-eams
[Chorus]
C#m A G#m G#7
Oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
A
Leading the way
F# G#m C#
Through cobbled street paths everwinding
A E
To the hallows eve masquerade

[Verse 2]
E G#
The lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
C#m G#
Pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
E G#
You found your way lit by small paper lanterns
F# G# E C#
That fluttered their way back to me
A G#7 G#m C#m
Through the market place -- buzzing with -- spectres and ghouls
F#7 G#m E C#
Sipping sweet apple wine making merry
A G#7 G#m C#m
You remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
F#7 G#m C#
While we lingered away in a drea-eam
[Chorus]
C#m A G#m G#7
Oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
A
Spinning away
F# G#m C#
On our little paved roads intertwining
A E
At the hallows eve masquerade

[Bridge]
C#m A G#m G#7
As the day breaks and I burst into sunshine rays
A
G# dazzling blaze
F# G#m C#
Don't weep like the sky cause you'll find me
A G#m E
At the hallows eve masquerade
F# G#m A
And I'll be the creak in your doo-oor
G# E
To bid you a hallows day.
