Verse 1
When we were (G major) kids
and I (D major) no ticed her right away,
we went bowl (E minor) ing with the gang,
(D major) what a sweet girl she was. (G major) (C major)
(G major) (C major) I put my (G major) hand on hers
in a (D major) moment of a spur
and spoke (E minor) po etry of the (D major) moon,
it seemed appropri (G major) ate. (C major) (G major)
(C major) But (G major) later we seemed embarrassed
(D major) but from then on,
(E minor) no matter where he went,
(D major) the moon was there to remind (G major) us. (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) When I had my nervous breakdown,
(D major) she seemed to blame herself
She wanted (E minor) to reach out to me,
but (D major) there was nothing
she could do to (G major) help (C major)
She (G major) blossomed into a beauty
which (D major) I had much expected
And I grew shy (E minor) and quiet
an (D major) d noisy in the head (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
And once at last inspired,
(D major) I tried to impress her
Gram (E minor) bling jokes and acting silly
(D major) was no act
I bumped her (C major) once by accident
(G major) Did (C major) n't shock (A minor) much to my surprise
electric thunderbolts jumping
from (G major) her eyes.
Years passed in no progress
just (D major) unspoken promises
we (E minor) had made to each other
(D major) in a glimpse, (C major) in a (G major) moment,
(A minor) with our eye (G major) s.
One night I saw her (D major) at a campfire
and she sat down (E minor) be side me
and was so (D major) talkative and po (G major) lite. (C major)
I burst (G major) into a song of (D major) forbidden love
As an impromp (E minor) tu show
of grat (D major) itude
(G major) Suddenly she broke down
and started laugh (D major) ing
An (E minor) d (D major) fell off her block (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) And then I walked her to her (D major) car
and meant to say
don't the moon look (E minor) pretty,
(D major) but I forgot to mention (G major) it. (C major) (G major)
(C major) So (G major) this our tale of unre (D major) quited love,
(E minor) incoherent, (D major) but it's (C major) true. (G major) (C major)
(G major) It's memory will surely (D major) shine with time,
(E minor) and it's (D major) sure to make us blue. (G major)
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (D major)
