C 
When the moon is up and shining 
        F                  C 
On the fields a long time bright 
                 G          C 
Where the crops    one time grew 
           C 
There's a black and gold horizon 
            F                       C 
Through the trees in the purple moonlight 
            G           C 
Welcome to    what you knew 


           F                                  C 
There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness 
          Am             G         
Covers up   a night so blue 
        F                                   Am 
And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it 
      G 
From view 


        C 
In the idle some grow restless 
     F                       C 
And imagine something more right 
                G          C 
Sometimes don't   think it through 
         C 
So they saddle up the ponies  
          F                  C 
And they ride off into the night 
               G            C 
One time more,   sometimes blue 


           F                              C 
Sometimes then the only colors they can dream of 
            Am            G 
Double back   and catch a few 
        F                                    Am 
Of the crazy moonlight dragons they've been chasing 
            G 
Through the hills

        C 
Now the mist is growing thicker 
          F                 C 
And it's getting harder to play 
               G         C 
Sometimes now    mostly true 
         C 
So they gather 'round the fire  
         F             C 
And they lie the time away 
                G           C 
Sometimes blue,   sometimes blue 


           F                                  C 
There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness 
          Am           G         
Covers up   a night so blue 
        F                                     Am 
And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it 
      G 
From view
