Intro
A5 F#m7 (x2)
[Verse]
A5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
F#m7
And the wind whips through your hair
A5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
F#m7
And I followed your cries here
A5
And those cries sent me wandering
F#m7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
A5
Just you and I on the shoreline
F#m7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
D
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
Bm A/F# E D
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
A E D
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
A E D
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
D
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
A A/F# (x2)
[Verse]
A5
I always swore I was trying
F#m7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
A5
Awake all night between bed sheets
F#m7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
A5
You replied with a smile
F#m7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
A5
I’ll return in the summer
F#m7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
D E A
[Outro]
A5 A/F F#m7 D
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
A E D
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
