Intro
A#5 Gm7 (x2)
[Verse]
A#5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
Gm7
And the wind whips through your hair
A#5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
Gm7
And I followed your cries here
A#5
And those cries sent me wandering
Gm7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
A#5
Just you and I on the shoreline
Gm7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
D#
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
Cm A#/G F D#
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
A# F D#
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
A# F D#
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
D#
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
A# A#/G (x2)
[Verse]
A#5
I always swore I was trying
Gm7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
A#5
Awake all night between bed sheets
Gm7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
A#5
You replied with a smile
Gm7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
A#5
I’ll return in the summer
Gm7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
D# F A#
[Outro]
A#5 A#/Gb Gm7 D#
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
A# F D#
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
