[Intro 1]
[A][G]
[A][G]
[D][A]
[G][Em]
[Bm]

[Verse 1]
Reach a hand to [Bm]the crescent
moon
Grab [A]hold of [G]the hollow
If she sits in the palm of the left
That [Bm]moon will be fuller tomorrow
If she sits in the palm of the right
That [A]moon is on the wane
And the [G]love of the one
who [F#m]shares your bed
Will be [Em]doing just the same
[Bm]

[Verse 2]
[Em]"Won't you come with[Bm] me",
she said,
"there's plenty [D]of [F#m]room
in [Bm]my iron bed
You're looking [A]cold and tired
[Em]And more than a little human
[Bm][F#m][Bm]
[Em]I know I'm not part of the
[Bm]life you had planned,
But I [F#m]think once your body
[Bm]feels my hand
[D]Your mind will change
And your [A]heart will lose its
pain"
[G][A]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]
Out among the fields gently [A]hipped
Beneath the corn,
[G]Assiniboine bones beneath the highway
He [Bm]stood there and he
thought of home
A finger traces the path of a satellite
You're [A]drawn to a distant copse of trees
A [G]voice as sweet as [F#m]Mare's Tail
[Em]Clings to the prairie breeze
[Bm]

[Verse 4]
[Em]"Won't you come with[Bm] me',
she said,
"there's plenty [D]of room
in [Bm]my iron bed
You're looking [A]cold and tired
And [Em]more than a little human
[Bm]I kn[F#m]ow I'm[Bm] not pa[Em]rt of
[Bm]the life you had planned,
But I [F#m]think once your [D]body [Bm]feels my hand
Your [D]mind will change
And your [A]heart will lose its

[Interlude 1]
pain"
[G][Em][A][Bm]
[A]

[Verse 5]
Do I [A]reach for you
When I [G]know you're on the [A]wane?
Do I sense you when I know
[G]you're not [D]around?
Do I search for you
When I [A]know you can't be found?
Do I dare to speak your [G]name?

[Interlude 2]
[Em][Bm]

[Verse 6]
Raise your eyes to [Bm]a moonless sky
And try [A]to wish upon a rising star
[G]Search all you want for her blessing
But you [Bm]won't find
her sparkling there
Now cast your eyes to a part of the sky
Where [A]nothing but darkness unfolds
And [G]watch as all [F#m]around you
She reveals the [Em]brilliance of secrets untold
[Bm]

[Verse 7]
[Em]Won't you come with me,[Bm]
she said,
There's [F#m]plenty of [D]room
in [Bm]my iron bed
You're looking [A]cold and tired
And [Em]more than a little [Bm]human
[Em]I know I'm not part of the
[Bm]life you had planned,
But I [F#m]think once your body [Bm]feels my hand
Your [D]mind will change
And your [A]heart will lose [G]it s pain
