[Verse 1]
D# G
Put down my backpack and take off my shoes
F G
The journey was good but your knees are still bruised
D# G
Oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
F D# C
You're a shadow with nobody there
Ab G7 Gm F7
And the harvest moon, shimmering, melted in two
F7 D# C
And poured silver rain into the stream
Ab G7 Gm F7
Where i crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
F7 Gm C
As the universe loosened its sea-eams
[Chorus]
Cm Ab Gm G7
Oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
Ab
Leading the way
F Gm C
Through cobbled street paths everwinding
Ab D#
To the hallows eve masquerade
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
D# G
The lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
Cm G
Pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
D# G
You found your way lit by small paper lanterns
F G D# C
That fluttered their way back to me
Ab G7 Gm Cm
Through the market place -- buzzing with -- spectres and ghouls
F7 Gm D# C
Sipping sweet apple wine making merry
Ab G7 Gm Cm
You remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
F7 Gm C
While we lingered away in a drea-eam
[Chorus]
Cm Ab Gm G7
Oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
Ab
Spinning away
F Gm C
On our little paved roads intertwining
Ab D#
At the hallows eve masquerade

[Bridge]
Cm Ab Gm G7
As the day breaks and I burst into sunshine rays
Ab
G dazzling blaze
F Gm C
Don't weep like the sky cause you'll find me
Ab Gm D#
At the hallows eve masquerade
F Gm Ab
And I'll be the creak in your doo-oor
G D#
To bid you a hallows day.
