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

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

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

Moonlighting, Theyre losing all their friends

Moonlighting, It's the only way,
C# B
it's frightening But it means they'll stay together,
F# C#
They're gonna make it together

Moonlighting, They're leaving everything
