[Verse 1]
C E
Put down my backpack and take off my shoes
D E
The journey was good but your knees are still bruised
C E
Oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
D C A
You're a shadow with nobody there
F E7 Em D7
And the harvest moon, shimmering, melted in two
D7 C A
And poured silver rain into the stream
F E7 Em D7
Where i crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
D7 Em A
As the universe loosened its sea-eams
[Chorus]
Am F Em E7
Oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
F
Leading the way
D Em A
Through cobbled street paths everwinding
F C
To the hallows eve masquerade
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
C E
The lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
Am E
Pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
C E
You found your way lit by small paper lanterns
D E C A
That fluttered their way back to me
F E7 Em Am
Through the market place -- buzzing with -- spectres and ghouls
D7 Em C A
Sipping sweet apple wine making merry
F E7 Em Am
You remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
D7 Em A
While we lingered away in a drea-eam
[Chorus]
Am F Em E7
Oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
F
Spinning away
D Em A
On our little paved roads intertwining
F C
At the hallows eve masquerade

[Bridge]
Am F Em E7
As the day breaks and I burst into sunshine rays
F
E dazzling blaze
D Em A
Don't weep like the sky cause you'll find me
F Em C
At the hallows eve masquerade
D Em F
And I'll be the creak in your doo-oor
E C
To bid you a hallows day.
