MOONLIGHTING - Ardijah
[Verse]
A#
He sees her at the same time every night
F
At the mexican discotheque
A#
She gives him french kisses, He gives her french cigarettes
A#
They sit at the same table every time, The lights are low but their eyes shine
F
Just digging the music from those sweet soul bands
She keeps him outta fights, holds onto his hand
D# F A# D#
He whispers slowly "Tonight's the night", months of planning so it's gotta be
right
F
Under the table her bag is busting at the seams
A# D#
She made sure to bring everything
[Chorus]
A#
Moonlighting, They're leaving everything
F
Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends
A#
Moonlighting, It's the only way,
F D#
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together ,
A# F
They're gonna make it together
[Solo break]

A# F
His blue morris van is parked in an alley, just by Montague Street
A#
His friend Eddie, he did the re-spray, so he couldn't drive it all last week
F
And it cost most of the money that he had saved up to pay Eddie's receipt
But he figures it's worth it 'cause the disguise is a must
A#
When they go missing, they're gonna look for the van first
D# F A# D#
She whispers slowly, "It'll be alright I took some cash from my building society
F
And my monthly check came in just right"
A# D#
If only they knew they weren't giving it away
[Chorus]
A#
Moonlighting, They're leaving everything
F
Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends
A#
Moonlighting, It's the only way,
F D#
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together ,
A# F
They're gonna make it together

C
Nine-fifteen Monday morning at the printing works
G
The boss notices someone's not clocked in
And the water department of the council offices has a message
C
That Mrs. Park's daughter is missing
C
Meanwhile the Carlisle turnoff of the M6 Motorway
Drinking cold black coffee, eating hot cupcakes
G
She stares at him with his beard unshaved
Wonders at his powers of staying awake
F G
He whispers slowly, "You did just fine"
C F
They shared the driving all through the night
G
She laughs, "My mother will have lost her mind
C
We're only ten miles to Gretna
F
They're three hundred behind
[Chorus]
C
Moonlighting, They're leaving everything

Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends

Moonlighting, It's the only way,

it's frightening But it means they'll stay together,

They're gonna make it together
