[Intro]
C G/B Em F G C G C G/B
Em F G C G/B Em F C G
[Verse 1]
C G Em The moon is like a boat, my love F G C G Of lemon peel afloat, my love C G Em And with a sail of gauze, my love F G C She seems to slightly pause G Em Upon her silent way F G C Em F G C G All on her silent way
[Verse 2]
C G Em I see her pearly decks, my love F G C G Set in with twinkling specks, my love C G Em I see her pearly mast, my love F G C Far from her seashell past G Em And gently does she sway F G C Em F G C G All on her starry way
[Verse 3]
C G Em Of silk they have been spun, my love F G C G Her ropes that limply run, my love C G Em Down to her carved prow, my love F G C Down to her mermaid prow G C And softly doth she sway F G C Em F G C G All on the starry way
[Verse 4]
C G Em All in the sea of sky, my love F G C G The moon ships sail and fly, my love C G Em Though many are their kind, my love F G C Though all need but one wind G Em To make their starry way F G C Em F G C G To make their starry way
[Verse 5]
C G Em And there will come a time, my love F G C G Oh, may it be in mine, my love C G Em When men will proudly rise, my love F G C And board to sail the skies G Em Moon ships from all the spheres F G C Em F G C G Moon ships from all the spheres
[Verse 6]
C G Em The men be bathed in light, my love F G C G The women clothed in white, my love C G Em All in that wondrous fleet, my love F G C As each the other meets G Em Will smile and softly sing F G C G Em F G C G Will smile and softly sing
[Verse 7]
C G Em And on some distant sand, my love F G C G The ships will gently land, my love C G Em Fair folk will meet them there, my love F G C With golden flowing hair G Em And great will be their joy F G C Em F G C G And great will be their joy
[Outro]
C G Em The moon is like a boat, my love F G C G Of lemon peel afloat, my love C G Em And with a sail of gauze, my love F G C She seems to slightly pause
