VERSE:
Bm A
Reach a hand to the crescent moon grab hold of the hollow
G Bm
If she sits in the palm of the left that moon will be fuller tomorrow
Bm A
If she sits in the palm of the right that moon is on the wan
G F#m
And the love of the one who shares your bed
Em Bm
will be doing just the same.
Em Bm F#m
Won't you come with me she said there's plenty of room
Bm
In my iron bed
A Em Bm
You're looking cold and tired and more than a little human.
Em Bm
I know I'm not part of the life you had planned
F#m Bm
But I think once your body feels my hand
D A G Em F#m Bm
You're mind will change and your heart will lose its pain
VERSE:
Bm A
Out among the fields gently hipped beneath the corn
G
Assiniboine bones beneath the highway
Bm
He stood there and thought of home
Bm
A finger traces the path of a satellite
A
you're drawn to a distant copse of trees
G F#m Em Bm
a voice as sweet as mares tail clings to the prairie breeze.
Em Bm F#m
Won't you come with me she said there's plenty of room
Bm
In my iron bed
A Em Bm
You're looking cold and tired and more than a little human.

I know I'm not part of the life you had planned
F#m Bm
But I think once your body feels my hand
D A G Em F#m Bm
You're mind will change and your heart will lose its pain
CHORUS:
A G
Do I reach for you when I know you're on the wane
A G
Do I sense you when I know you're not around
D A
Do I search for you when I know you can't be found
A G Em F#m Bm
Do I dare to speak your name
VERSE:
Raise your eyes to a moonless sky
and try to wish upon a rising star
search all you want for her blessing
but you won't find her sparkling there
Now cast your eyes to a part of the sky
where nothing but darkness unfolds
and watch as all around you
she reveals the brilliance of secrets untold
Won't you come with me she said there's plenty of room in my iron bed
You're looking cold and tired and more than a little human.
I know I'm not part of the life you had planned
But I think once your body feels my hand
You're mind will change and your heart will lose its pain
CHORUS:
A G
Do I reach for you when I know you're on the wane
A G
Do I sense you when I know you're not around
D A
Do I search for you when I know you can't be found
A G Em F#m Bm
Do I dare to speak your name
