[Verse 1]
C E
Put down my backpack and take off my shoes
F Fm
The journey was good but your knees are still bruised
C E
Oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
F Fm C A
You're a shadow with nobody there
F E Em Dm
And the harvest moon, shimmering, melted in two
F Fm C A
And poured silver rain into the stream
F E Em F
Where I crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
Dm Em A
As the universe loosened its sea-eams
[Chorus]
F G E
Oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
Dm
Leading the way
F Gm F
Through cobbled street paths everwinding
F Fm C
To the hallows eve masquerade
[Interlude]
| C | E | F | Fm |
[Verse 2]
C E
The lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
F Fm
Pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
C E
You found your way lit by small paper lanterns
F Fm C A
That fluttered their way back to me
F E Em Dm
Through the market place -- buzzing with -- spectres and ghouls
F Fm C A
Sipping sweet apple wine making merry
F E Em F
You remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
Dm Em A
While we lingered away in a drea-eam
[Chorus]
F G E
Oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
Dm
Spinning away
F Gm F
On our little paved roads intertwining
F Fm C
At the hallows eve masquerade
[Interlude]*

[Bridge]
F G E
As the day breaks and I burst into sunshine rays
Dm
A dazzling blaze
F Gm F
Don't weep like the sky cause you'll find me
F Fm C A
At the hallows eve masquerade
F Gm F
And I'll be the creak in your doo-oor
F Fm C
To bid you a hallows day.
