G G/E
birds sing songs and
G G/E
wake the dreamers
C
from their sorrow
G G/E
force while raining
D C
crying bye bye sweet fried chicken
G G/E
and the platter
G G/E
glides away
[Chorus]
G G/E
in the moonlight
G G/E
in the moonlight
C
we don't hear the
G G/E
water running
D
down the stream of
C
all the people
G G/E
there is no one
G G/E
ever coming
[Verse 2]
G G/E
I lay on my side
G G/E
I lay on my side
C
you was laying
G G/E
right beside me
D
and the stars
C
they was coming
G G/E
and blinking
G G/E
tenderly
[Verse 3]
G G/E
little lightning bugs
G G/E
time and time again
C
down and dashing
G G/E
all around us
D
and a shooting
C
star come flashing
G G/E
never making
G G/E
not a bit of fuss
[Verse 3]
G G/E
sometime we walk in song
G G/E
that the moon was going
C
from the left side
G G/E
to the right side
D
and the columns
C
of mist was rising
G G/E
looked like friends of mine
G G/E
who have died
[Chorus]
G G/E
in the moonlight
G G/E
in the moonlight
C
we don't hear the
G G/E
water running
D
down the stream of
C
all the people
G G/E
there is no one
G G/E
ever coming
