LYRICS:
verse 1:
Down by the waters
Where I once dreamed
Beneath the silver moon, there you'll find me
My heart a pilgrim, my mind a slave
Oh My eyes can't stand to see the light of day
'Cause life is lost without love wouldn't you say
verse 2:
I wish you'd follow, me to my peace
Lend me your hands,
I'll bring you from your knees
My love is faithful, your love is true
And I know the silver moon will shine for you
Oh! I know the silver moon will shine for you

** There are at least two guitars on the album version, the main guitar just strums the chords,
while another guitar (which I suspect is in a different tuning or has a capo)
plays a finger picking pattern. There are several ways of playing something similar on one guitar, however.
Below are two different arrangements, one where the melody is played an octave lower than in the original
song, and other one where it is played in the same register but you must stretch your fingers quite a lot:
