Intro
C5 Am7 (x2)
[Verse]
C5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
Am7
And the wind whips through your hair
C5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
Am7
And I followed your cries here
C5
And those cries sent me wandering
Am7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
C5
Just you and I on the shoreline
Am7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
F
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
Dm 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]
C5
I always swore I was trying
Am7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
C5
Awake all night between bed sheets
Am7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
C5
You replied with a smile
Am7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
C5
I’ll return in the summer
Am7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
F G C
[Outro]
C5 C/Ab Am7 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
