Matraca Berg  Lying to the Moon by Matraca Berg/Ronnie Samoset

Am Em  C   Am Em D

D           G         D

I watch the sun going down

         Em             G

While I stand on sacred ground.

      D        G           D

Where once the night found us.

       Em              C

In the twilight of our love.

Am             C        D

You said you'd meet me here.

    Em

But I'm all alone.

Am          C      D

You sounded so sincere.

              G

Well did you lead me on.

D          G             C        G

I told the starry sky to wait for you.

D          G            C

I told the wind to sigh like lovers do.

D      G                   C

I even told the night that you were true.

    Am        Bm      C

And you would be here soon.

            Am    D      G    G  D   Em  C

And now I'm lying to the moon.

C          G              D

And so the night takes me in.

       Em          G

Like a sympathetic friend.

    D     G         D

And sends away the trees.

       Em               C

And the willow weeps for me.

Am          C        D

The shadows fool my eyes.

      Em

And I think I see you.

Am        C        D

Then they start to cry.

          G

Don't you know that they believed you

D          G             C        G

I told the starry sky to wait for you.

D          G            C

I told the wind to sigh like lovers do.

D      G                   C

I even told the night that you were true.

    Am        Bm      C

And you would be here soon.

            Am    D      Am  Em  C  Am Em D  G

And now I'm lying to the moon.
