[Verse 1]
Well, the [Am]moon I know,
in the town I live, is steady as she waits.
It seems as though she yearns for me [C]and
[Am]calls me by [G]my [C]name.
[Am]Sometimes she says come to me,
kiss me while it's [C]late.
[Am]And other nights she's just
[C]hanging [F]with the stars.
[G]And

[Verse 2]
[Am]I've seen her waiting
from [Dm]all her mistakes
[F]And what if he never
comes when you [G]call?

[Verse 3]
And, [C]"Hey,
hey it's al[F]right," she says,
"Once upon a time I lived
a perfect [C]night.
Hey, hey in another [F]life," she says,
"In a [G]dream of mine from a thousand years

[Interlude 1]
ago."
[Am][F][C][G][Am][F][C][G][F][G]

[Verse 4]
[Am]"Don't look back," I heard a voice,
in velvet I couldn't see.
The pictures then were black [C]and white,
and the details [G]were in [C]between.
I [Am]heard about a woman once,
[C]who did eve[Am]rything ever asked of her.[C]
She [Am]died last week and her last words [C]were,
"It [F]wasn't worth it."
[G]And

[Verse 5]
[Am]I've seen her patience
through [Dm]all her mistakes
[F]And who's gonna save you [G]now?

[Verse 6]
And, [C]"Hey,
hey it's al[F]right," she says,
"Once upon a time I lived
a perfect [G]night.[C]
Hey, hey in another [F]life," she says,
"In a [G]dream of mine from a thousand years

[Interlude 2]
ago."

[Verse 7]
[C]"Hey, it's al[F]right," she says,
"Once upon a time I lived
a perfect [C]night.
Hey, hey in another [F]life," she says,
"In a [G]dream of mine from

[Verse 8]
a thousand years ago."
[C]"Hey, hey it's al
[F]right," she says.
[C]"Hey, in another [F]life," [G]she says.

[Verse 9]
[C]Way back when, when we became friends,
I was you, you were my defense.
And [F]quiet was the night.
You [C]showed me that bridge,
and it brought you home.
You told me about it and I never let it go,
And [F]I guess I might've
been doing the same.
[G]Anyhow, quiet was the night.
[Am][F][C]
