Intro
G#5 Fm7 (x2)
[Verse]
G#5
The night hangs blue on the black sea
Fm7
And the wind whips through your hair
G#5
I’ve been gone for a lifetime
Fm7
And I followed your cries here
G#5
And those cries sent me wandering
Fm7
And I brought what of the world that I could carry back for you
G#5
Just you and I on the shoreline
Fm7
And the stars that shimmer on and on. I’m lost without you near me
C#
Show me to the moon
[Chorus]
A#m G#/F D# C#
Cause I don’t think that I’d survive without you anyway
G# D# C#
Show me to the moon so I can keep my ills at bay
G# D# C#
Or fade into her light and wander on eternally
C#
Show me to the moon
[Interlude]
G# G#/F (x2)
[Verse]
G#5
I always swore I was trying
Fm7
And I ruined perfect moments like the times where we would stay
G#5
Awake all night between bed sheets
Fm7
And I loved you like the spring and I was reaching for the sun
G#5
You replied with a smile
Fm7
And an unrequiting stare that sent me off through lonely weather
G#5
I’ll return in the summer
Fm7
And fall out the door before I hear you say that I’m not welcome
[Interlude]
C# D# G#
[Outro]
G#5 G#/Fb Fm7 C#
Then, as if by song, I will reappear on some quiet winter dawn
G# D# C#
And you’ll be tired, so tired of singing along
