[Verse 1]
A F#m
Let me stand
D E
close to the water honey
A F#m
Let the moon grow
D E
over my head above me
A F#m
with his reflection shining below
A D E
I'll tell you my feelings when they have passed and the moon has reached the floor
[Verse 2]
A F#m
Let's climb this hill
D E
and forget we're getting older
A F#m
my memory's short
D E
and there's things I can't remember
A F#m
The moon is bright, shining like gold
A D E
maybe if I wait I'll find a home away from all the noise
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
A F#m
I want to swim
D E
among the catfish naked
A F#m
and feel my skin
D E
along the ocean flow
A F#m
take me away from the liquor store
A D E
Drown me in something that's not quite as bitter in the moon
