Lying To The Moon Matraca Berg
[Am] [Em] [C] [Am] [Em] [D]
[D]I watch the [G]sun going [D]down
While I s[Em]tand on sacred [G]ground.
Where [D]once the [G]night found [D]us.
In the [Em]twilight of our [C]love.
[Am]You said you'd [C]meet me h[D]ere.
But [Em]I'm all alone.
[Am]You sounded [C]so sinc[D]ere.
Well did you l[G]ead me on.
[D]I told the [G]starry sky to [C]wait for [G]you.
[D]I told the [G]wind to sigh [C]like lovers do.
[D]I even [G]told the night that [C]you were true.
And [Am]you would [Bm]be here [C]soon.
And now I'm [Am]lying [D]to the [G]moon.[G] [D] [Em] [C]
[C]And so the [G]night takes me [D]in.
Like a [Em]sympathetic [G]friend.
And [D]sends [G]away the t[D]rees.
And the[Em] willow weeps for[C] me.
[Am]The shadows [C]fool my e[D]yes.
And I [Em]think I see you.
[Am]Then they [C]start to [D]cry.
Don't you [G]know that they believed you
[D]I told the [G]starry sky to [C]wait for [G]you.
[D]I told the [G]wind to sigh [C]like lovers do.
[D]I even [G]told the night that [C]you were true.
And [Am]you would [Bm]be here [C]soon.
And now I'm [Am]lying [D]to the [Am]moon[Em]. [C] [Am] [Em] [D] [G]
