Intro
E5 C#m7 (x2)
[Verse]
E5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
C#m7
And the wind whips through your hair
E5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
C#m7
And I followed your cries here
E5
And those cries sent me wandering
C#m7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
E5
Just you and I on the shoreline
C#m7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
A
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
F#m E/C# B A
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
E B A
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
E B A
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
A
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
E E/C# (x2)
[Verse]
E5
I always swore I was trying
C#m7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
E5
Awake all night between bed sheets
C#m7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
E5
You replied with a smile
C#m7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
E5
I’ll return in the summer
C#m7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
A B E
[Outro]
E5 E/C C#m7 A
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
E B A
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
