Capo 3

The Moon and St Christopher Mary Black (Mary Chapin-Carpenter)

Intro

When I was young I spoke like a child I     saw with a child's eyes

  G                  Am                      C                  Em7 D

And an open door was to     a girl like      the stars are to the sky

        G             Am                          C                D

It's funny how the world lives up to     all your expectations

     Em     Cmaj7    Em7        Em        C        Em7      D

With adventures for the stout of heart      and the lure of the open spaces

  Am                     Em7                          C                 D

There's two lanes running down this road

  G                        Am

And whichever side you're  on

   C                        Em7 D

Accounts for where you want to go

  G                     Am

And what you 're running from

     C                    D

Back when darkness overtook me   on a blind man's curve

Em      Cmaj7 Em7    Em          C      Em7        C

I relied upon the moon

  G        Am      D    D/F#

I relied upon the moon

   G       Am       D  D/F#

I relied upon the moon and St Christopher

   G       Am       D                G    ( as intro )

Now I've paid my dues 'cause I have owed them     but I've paid a price sometimes    

For being such a stubborn woman     in such stubborn times            

I have run from the arms of lo         I have run from the eyes of friends  

I have run from the hands of kindness   I have run just because I can

But now I've grown and I speak like a woman

And I see with a woman's eyes  and an open door is to  me now like

The saddest of goodbyes  but it's to late for turning back

And I pray for the heart and the nerve

I rely upon the moon

I rely upon the moon

I rely upon the moon and St Christopher

  G     Am       D                G     Am  D

I rely upon the moon

I rely upon the moon

I rely upon the moon and St Christopher

   G    Am       D                 Cmaj7  Em7

To be my guide

           Am    G
