Intro
C#5 A#m7 (x2)
[Verse]
C#5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
A#m7
And the wind whips through your hair
C#5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
A#m7
And I followed your cries here
C#5
And those cries sent me wandering
A#m7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
C#5
Just you and I on the shoreline
A#m7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
F#
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
D#m C#/A# G# F#
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
C# G# F#
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
C# G# F#
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
F#
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
C# C#/A# (x2)
[Verse]
C#5
I always swore I was trying
A#m7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
C#5
Awake all night between bed sheets
A#m7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
C#5
You replied with a smile
A#m7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
C#5
I’ll return in the summer
A#m7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
F# G# C#
[Outro]
C#5 C#/A A#m7 F#
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
C# G# F#
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
