Intro
D#5 Cm7 (x2)
[Verse]
D#5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
Cm7
And the wind whips through your hair
D#5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
Cm7
And I followed your cries here
D#5
And those cries sent me wandering
Cm7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
D#5
Just you and I on the shoreline
Cm7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
G#
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
Fm D#/C A# G#
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
D# A# G#
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
D# A# G#
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
G#
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
D# D#/C (x2)
[Verse]
D#5
I always swore I was trying
Cm7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
D#5
Awake all night between bed sheets
Cm7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
D#5
You replied with a smile
Cm7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
D#5
I’ll return in the summer
Cm7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
G# A# D#
[Outro]
D#5 D#/Cb Cm7 G#
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
D# A# G#
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
