Rising Moon



Am    G      Am    Em      Dm    F      G    Am

Am          G                 Am     Em
We left the others     in the fading light
Am                 F           C           Am
Walked up that old road   on a warm summer night
   Am            G                 Am               Em
He said let's go high    there's a good chance it's soon
Am           F             C      Am
We'll get to see       the rising moon

Am    G      Am    Em      Dm    F      G    Am

     Am             G                Am       Em
When we reached the quarry    we can feel the breeze
   Dm            F             G             Am
We stood there a moment        searching the trees
     Am          G                Am      Em
Then suddenly we saw it      that big red glow
Am          F                    C          Am
I took your hand         and you didn't let go

    Am                   G
And my poor heart jumped out of my chest
Dm                         F         Am
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest

My poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest

Am    G      Am    Em      Dm    F      C    Am

    Am               G               Am          Em
The moon changed its colour    as it rose in the sky
Am             F                C               Am
We change each other      under heaven's bright eye
        Am        G             Am          Em
I might live to a hundred       I might die soon
         Am       F             C      Am
But I'll never forget      that rising moon

And my poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest
And my poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest

           Dm
Now you've gone
                          Am
Left me staring at the horizon
               Dm        
My heart beats strong
                               E
Sometimes I just wish it would stop
but it keeps pumping on

Dm      Dm      Am      Dm       Dm      E      E

My poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest
My poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest
My poor heart jumped out of my chest
My poor heart jumped right out of my chest
