C Above the dark highways F on a black tar roof G stood the sad milkman C in love with the moon C She filled up his window F with soft milky light G so he climbed up the chimney C and into the night F But the moon she rises C and the moon she falls G and her slow white eye C sees nothing at all C Down on the sidewalk F a crowd gathered round G throwing up bricks and bottles C to knock the boy down C He stood up above them F with his hands in the air G crying up to the moonbeams, C 'Come let down your hair.' F But the moon she rises C and the moon she falls G and her slow white eye C sees nothing at all C He wanted to feel like F a bucket of milk G or sweet summer wind C on rolling, green hills C He wanted to fly F up from the roof G up through the night wind C to the arms of the moon F But the moon she rises C and the moon she falls G and her slow white eye C sees nothing at all F But the moon she rises C and the moon she falls G and her slow white eye C sees nothing at all
