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

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

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

Moonlighting, They're leaving everything

They're gonna make it together
