  			E7  
See that yellow moon rising high in the sky there 
                              A7   
Don't let it fool you now, oh no 
It's just a feelin' but I don't want to find you lost 
                        E7                                      
Paying a heavy cost for nothing at all  
It's a mighty long way to fall 

There are angels in heaven but some fell away 
Don't let them fool you now, oh no 
It's not a feelin' but I heard that from the garden 
They were thrown out and hardened and as I recall  
It was a mighty long way to fall 

        C#m                       A                
You can bet on this life, but the stakes will be high 
    C#m                     A      
And talk all you want about heaven 
        E            D        A           Bm  
But the moon in your eyes and those in disguise 
      C#m            A 
Won't get you to paradise 


Temptations are many with hearts running wild 
Don't let them fool you now, oh no 
It's not a feeling cause I crossed that line and lived a lie 
Suffered but didn't die saved from it all 
A mighty long way to fall 

Chorus +: 
          E        A                   E        A 
If you're fallin', fallin'; if you're  fallin', fallin' 8repeat)
