NIGHT OF A MILLION MOONS (Mary Karlzen) --------------------------------------- [The chords are kind of hard to define; see the tab at the end for a better idea of what's going on.]
[intro]
What seemed to be
A million years ago
When the summers were as endless as the days and the sky was as lazy
My mother and I
Would sit on the concrete steps
And watch the wind blow through the grass D7/F# We saw the dogs run, and watched my brothers pass
And I looked at my mother
As we silently watched the wind
And without a single word D7/F# We'd rise up, and go in
Welcome to the night of a million moons
Welcome to the future which comes all too soon
And I reached for the light as if I could stop the past somehow
Welcome to the night of a million moons
[repeat and fade instrumental]
GUITAR 1:
[This is the part that's played through most of the verse, where the chords are C and F over and over.]
