  			G                  D 
Oh cruel moon  you shine so bright 
    C                         D 
And act like everythings all right 
     G                  D 
You shine as if there's nothing wrong 
    C                  D         G 
You shine on down like she's not gone 
G                   D                          
Oh cruel moon don't make me see 
      C                           D 
Where our sweet love scene use to be 
G                  D 
For it was you who watched our kiss 
C                        D          G 
Please don't lite up the night like this 
   C                G 
Oh cruel moon don't shine on me 
       Em              D 
You'll bring me to her memory 
        C                  G 
Why you can't you leave me in the dark 
    Em          D      C 
You never had a broken heart 
 
SOLO 
 
G                 D 
Oh cruel moon you say her name 
    C                     D 
And act as if your not to blame 
    G                     D 
You know it hurts me to recall 
   C              D       G 
Or don't you even care at all 
   C                G 
Oh cruel moon don't shine on me 
       Em              D 
You'll bring me to her memory 
        C                  G 
Why you can't you leave me in the dark 
    Em          D      C 
You never had a broken heart 
G                D 
Oh cruel moon so high above 
    C                          D 
You must have never lost your love 
   G               D 
If only you would  be my friend 
    C                   D   G       
And hide your face from me again
