G                          C
Come, won't you walk with me, Griselda
G                        D
Wearin' your dress that moonlight shines through?
Em             C
I am a sad and lonely boy
G                 D
Since your mother said I couldn't see you


[Chorus]
G                                 C           G
Slippin' through the woods in the dark of the night
G                       C  D
Callin' to the moon out yonder
Em                       C
Old Lady Moon, won't you shine your silver light
G              D        G
And lead me to my Griselda!

[Verse]

G                    C
Do you recall last night, Griselda
G                    D
Learnin' the lessons nature taught us?
Em                     C
Watchin' the fish jump in the lake
G             D
It was lovely till your mother caught us


[Chorus]
G                                 C           G
Slippin' through the woods in the dark of the night
G                       C  D
Callin' to the moon out yonder
Em                       C
Old Lady Moon, won't you shine your silver light
G              D        G
And lead me to my Griselda!

[Verse]
G                 C
Moonflower Vine upon your window
G                   D
Gives me a foothold for my climbin'
Em              C
I got a rowboat on the lake;
G                       D
Moon is out and all the stars are shinin'

[Chorus]
G                                 C           G
Slippin' through the woods in the dark of the night
G                       C   D
Callin' to the moon out yonder
Em                       C
Old Lady Moon, won't you shine your silver light
G              D        G
And lead me to my Griselda!

[Verse]
G              C
I got a jug of wine, Griselda!
G                         D
Why should you waste your time in sorrow?
Em                     C
Hold out your hand and have no fear;
G                    D
If we're caught I'll marry ya tomorrow!

[Chorus]
G                                 C           G
Slippin' through the woods in the dark of the night
G                       D
Callin' to the moon out yonder
Em                       C
Old Lady Moon, won't you shine your silver light
G              D        G
And lead me to my Griselda!
