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