VERSE 1
The moon lights up your face D add 4/add2 C
As the shadows caress each place D add 4/add2 C
A cloud moves and you’re gone D add 4/add2 C
It suggests you’ll be moving on Am C
VERSE 2
You say you have to go D add 4/add2 C
That you’re needed for something at home D add 4/add2 C
Inside I scream you’re needed here D add 4/add2 C
But those words will never grace your ears. Am C
PRE-CHORUS
Because I’m leaving Am
With the moon into dawn. C D
CHORUS
Like Aphrodite at play A7/add9 Am7
I might hunt here one more day A7/add9 Am7 C
As the moon will wax and wan A7/add9 Am7
When it fades I’ll be gone A7/add9 Am7 C
New Moon A7/add9 Am7
New Moon A7/add9 Am7 C
VERSE 3
You look for me to quench your thirst D add 4/add2 C
But I’m a moonlit mirage that is gone first D add 4/add2 C
And as the stars light up my eyes D add 4/add2 C
What’s between us slowly dies Am C
PRE-CHORUS
Because I’m leaving Am
With the moon into dawn. C D
CHORUS REPEAT
LEAD VERSE CHORDS
CHORUS REPEAT
End on A7/add9
