Song : DANCING WITH THE MOONLIGHT KNIGHT
Band : GENESIS
Album : SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUNDS

Transcripted by Raphaël Chaize

the song was originally transcripted by Maurizio Tiziano Moretto, but
the tonality and little details were not right. Here is my humble
correction. Maybe one day I will pursue the weird stuff that follows the
song.

"Can you tell me where my coutry lies?"
Said the unifaun to his true love's eyes

"It (C#m)lies with me" cried the (G#m)queen of maybe
For her (C#m)merchandise he (A)traded in his (C#m)prize (G#m) (A)

(A)"Paper (B)late" - cried a voice in the (E)crowd, old man dies
The note he left was (B)signed "old father (C#m)Thames", it seems he's
(B)drowned
(C#m)Selling (A)England (B)by the (C#m)pound (G#m) (Amaj7)

(C#m)Citizens of (B)hope and (A)glory, time goes (B)by it's the time of
your (E)life
(E)Easy now, sit you down,
Chewing (B)through you wimpey dreams they (C#m)eat without a (B)sound
(C#m)disgesting (A)England (B)by the (C#m)pound (G#m) (Amaj7)

(C#m) (G#m) (Amaj7), (C#m) (G#m) (Amaj7)

(C#m)Young man says "You (G#m)are what you (Amaj7)eat,
eat (C#m)well" (G#m) (Amaj7)
(C#m)Old man says "You (G#m)are what you (Amaj7)wear,
wear (C#m)well" (G#m) (Amaj7)
(C#m)You know what you (G#m)are
you (Amaj7)don't give a (C#m)damn (G#m) (Amaj7)
(C#m)Bursting your (G#m)belt that is your (Amaj7)home-made (B)sham

(B)The captain leads his
(E)Dance right on (F#)through the (G#)night
(C#7)join the (F#)dance

(F#)Follow (C#)on (F#)till the (C#)grail (F#)sunset (C#)in the
(D#m)mould
(F#)Follow (C#)on (F#)till the (C#)gold is (B)cold
(E)Dancing (B)out (E)with the (F#m)moon(E)light (B)knight
(F#m)Knight soft the (D)greenshield (E)stamp (F#)and (C#)shout

Strum (?)

(C#m)There's a fat old (G#m)lady out(A)side the (C#m)saloon (G#m) (A)
(C#m)Laying out a (G#m)credit (A)card she plays (C#m)fortune (G#m) (A)
(C#m)The desk is un(G#m)even (A)right from the (C#m)start (G#m) (A)
(C#m)All of their (G#m)hands are (A)playing (B)apart
(B)the captain leads his
(E)Dance right on (F#)through the (G#)night
(C#7)join the (F#)dance

(F#)Follow (C#)on, (F#)around (C#)table (F#)talking (C#)down we (D#m)go
(F#)You're the (C#)show, (F#)off we (C#)go
(C#)with you play the bobby horse,
(C#)I'll play the fool, we'll tease the (G#m)dull (C#m)ring(G#m)ing
(G#m)Round and (A)round     (C#)round and (F#)round

(F#)Follow (C#)on, (F#)will a (C#)twist (F#)of the (C#)world we (D#m)go
(F#)Follow (C#)on (F#)till the (C#)gold is (B)cold
(E)Dancing (B)out (E)with the (F#m)moon(E)light (B)knight
(F#m)Knight soft the (D)greenshield (E)stamp (F#)and (C#)shout
