Intro
G5 Em7 (x2)
[Verse]
G5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
Em7
And the wind whips through your hair
G5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
Em7
And I followed your cries here
G5
And those cries sent me wandering
Em7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
G5
Just you and I on the shoreline
Em7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
C
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
Am G/E D C
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
G D C
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
G D C
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
C
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
G G/E (x2)
[Verse]
G5
I always swore I was trying
Em7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
G5
Awake all night between bed sheets
Em7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
G5
You replied with a smile
Em7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
G5
I’ll return in the summer
Em7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
C D G
[Outro]
G5 G/Eb Em7 C
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
G D C
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
