Calling The Moon chords and lyrics - DAR WILLIAMS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]The[G] mo[D]on[G][A][D]
wanted more [G]of my night
I [D]turned off the engine and
[G]the headlights[D]
The [Em]trees appeared
[Bm]as they'd [A]never been gone
I [Em]promised the fields I'd re
[A]turn from now on
And the [D]moon kept [G]on [D]rising
I had [Em]no more to say
I put my [A]road maps away
And sur[D]rendered the day
[G]And I know you'll be

[Verse 2]
[A]calling me soon
[D]And if I don't answer I'm
calling [G]the moon
Calling [Em]the moon
I was [A]calling her then
I'm [D]wondering [A]will she[Bm] take me again
[G]Oh, [Em]I am[A] calling the moo[D]n

[Verse 3]
When [D]I called the moon back t[G]o me
I [D]thought she wanted [G]my beauty
[D]I s[Em]hone in the best that vanit[A]y buys
[Em]I covered the path where
[A]my life turned to lies
And [D]the moon kept [G]on [D]rising
But I felt [Em]nothing at all
She comes when the [A]em pire falls
And shines on [D]crumbling walls

[Verse 4]
Calling [Em]the moon
By [A]the name that she chose
As [D]Tennessee wandered
in [Bm]moth- eaten robes
[G]Oh, [A]I am calling the moo[D]n
Calling [Em]the [A]moon[D][A][Bm]
[G]Oh [A]I'm calling the[D] moon

[Verse 5]
Oh, [D]make sense of [G]me, night
I can [D]see so much from
[G]this cold [D]height
[Em]The moon said oh darkness
my [A]work is done
[Em]I've poured this bottle
of [A]light from the sun
But their [D]anger keeps [G]on [D]rising
And they don't [Em]understand
I've shown them [A]all that I can
That [D]the world is at hand

[Verse 6]
[G]And I know they'll be [A]calling me soon
[D]And if I don't answer I'm only t[Em]he moon
I [A]can see by her light
This [D]one's going out to [Bm]the moon tonight
[G]Oh, [Em]I am[A] calling
the [D]moon[Em][D]

[Verse 7]
Calling [Em]the moon
Cause I [A]know what it's worth
To [D]tug at the seas and il[Bm]lumine the earth
[G]Oh, [A]I am calling the[Bm] moo[G]n
[Em]Oh, [A]I am calling the[D] moon

[Outro 1]
