Em             G                Bm7 
Last night the moon watched the sea, 
                Em 
As he looked so sad, 
               G           Bm7 
His reflection told me the story, 

      C*                                                                  Em

              C       Em 
Why he didn't speak a sound, 
                 C          Em 
And all to do is weep, come down. 



Em         G               Bm7           
I tried to ask him what he needs, 
                     Em 
Moon light paints my face, 
            G                   Bm7 
And when he turned and looked to me, 
    

               C*      Em         (strum this Chorus) 
Still we never speak a sound,                      
                 C*         Em 
And all to do is weep, come down. 



Em           G              Bm7 
And when the up comes to an end, 
           Em 
And all is last, 
              G             Bm7                     
The moon will lose his only friend, 


               C*      Em         (strum this Chorus) 
Still we never speak a sound,                      
                 C*         Em 
And all to do is weep, come down. 


C*      Em               (strum this too) 
No more words, 
C*      Em 
Lost in space, 
C*          Em 
It's on his face, 
           C* 
Man on the moon.
