MOONLIGHTING - Ardijah
[Verse]
A
He sees her at the same time every night
E
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
E
Just digging the music from those sweet soul bands
She keeps him outta fights, holds onto his hand
D E A D
He whispers slowly "Tonight's the night", months of planning so it's gotta be
right
E
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
E
Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends
A
Moonlighting, It's the only way,
E D
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together ,
A E
They're gonna make it together
[Solo break]

[Verse]
A E
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
E
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 E A D
She whispers slowly, "It'll be alright I took some cash from my building society
E
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
E
Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends
A
Moonlighting, It's the only way,
E D
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together ,
A E
They're gonna make it together

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

Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends

Moonlighting, It's the only way,
F# E
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together,

They're gonna make it together
