NOTE: ~ = Walk-Down from C to Am [Intro] C/E F C/G F [Verse 1]
       C/E
Let me reach out, love, and touch you

       G
Let me hold you for awhile

          Am             C/G
I've been all around the world

          D/F#            Dm6/F
Oh, how I long to see you smile
[Verse 2]
          C/E
There's a shadow on the moon

        G
And the waters here below

       Em
Do not shine the way they should

      F
And I love you just in case you didn't know
[Chorus] N.C. C ~ Let it go
       Am             C/G             F           C/G
Let it happen like it happened once before

                          Em
It's a wicked wind and it chills me to the bone

       Am           C/G
And if you do not believe me

         F                                     C/E   F
Come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
[Verse 3]
          C/E
Won't you lie down by me baby

         G
Run your fingers through my hands

          Am             C/G
I've been all around the town

            D/F#        Dm6/F
And still I do not understand
[Verse 4]
      C/E
Is it me or is it you

       G
Or the shadow of a dream

      Em
Is it wrong to be in love

         F
Could it be the finest love I've ever seen
[Chorus] N.C. C ~ Set it free
       Am             C/G             F         D7/F#  C/G
Let it happen like it happened once before

                          Em
It's a wicked wind and it chills me to the bone

       Am           C/G
And if you do not believe me

         F                                     C/E   F
Come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
[Verse 5]
       C/E
Please kiss me gently darling

          G
Where the river runs away

         Am               C/G
From the mountains in the springtime

     D/F#           Dm6/F
On a blue and windy day
[Verse 6]
             C/E
When there's beauty all around

       G
As the shades of night grow deep

       Em
As the morning stars grow dim

          F
They will find us in the shadows fast asleep
[Chorus] N.C. C ~ Let it go
       Am             C/G             F         D7/F#  C/G
Let it happen like it happened once before

                          Em
It's a wicked wind and it chills me to the bone

       Am           C/G
And if you do not believe me

         F
Come and gaze upon the shadow at your door
[Outro] C/E F C/G F C
