Long English day 

 
           D            D7          G        C 
It was the moon shining down on the water so white

Old English house 
Cadd9         G     Em 
Blind as the night 
                 C 
She's dressed in white

Just like the moon shining down on the water

Cold English air

I can't explain, don't ask, it's stronger than me 
              G            D           C     G 
Just like the moon shining down on the water

It was the moon shining down on the water
