 G            C(9)    CSee her how she flies     
G                       Am7  C   GGolden sails across the sky
C                 D7sus  D7Close enough to touch 
Bm7                 CBut careful if you try
C             D7          EmThough she looks as warm as gold
C       G            Am7The moon's a harsh mistress
 D7sus  D7          GThe moon can be so cold
 G               C(9)    COnce the sun did shine 
G                 Am7  C   GLord, it felt so fine
C                  D7sus  D7The moon a phantom rose 
   Bm7                          CThrough the mountains and the pines
C               D7     EmAnd then the darkness fell
C         G              Am7And the moon's a harsh mistress
  D7sus    D7              G     It's so hard to love her well

 Bb                EbI fell out of her eyes 
Bb                 Cm7  Eb  BbI fell out of her heart
Eb               F7sus  F7I fell down on my face 
Dm7                     EbI tripped and  missed my star
Eb                F7   GmGod, I fell and fell alone,
       Bb         Eb         Cm7And the moon's a harsh mistress
  F7sus  F7             BbAnd the sky is made of stone
    Bb         Eb        Cm7The moon's a harsh mistress
F7sus F7                 BbShe's hard to call your own.
