Chords

[Verse 1]
    G
The moon is slowly rising

G7
It's really not surprising

       C                          G
After all, she's there most every night

 G
Smiling on the lovers
Always shining on the others
    C                              D
And bathing in the sun's reflected light
[Chorus 1]
   C
But later on she's fade away

D
Hidden by the break of day

     G                   C
That always comes too soon

Am
Poor little thing

D/F#                     G
She's just a jealous moon
[Verse 2]
    G
She plays above the water

 G7
Watching sailors, tramps and daughters

  C                                 G
Live their lives and slowly fade away

  G
Night afternight, year after year

   C
Once she knows she'll disappear

  C                             D
Into a world she never gets to stay
[Chorus 2]
   C
But she would give most anything

 D
To open up her heart and sing

 G                 C
But no one hears her tune

   Am
Poor little thing

    D/F#                 G
She's just a jealous moon
[Bridge]
 B7                   C
No one ask her how she got so high

 A7                          D
Way up there forever in the lonely sky
[Verse 3]
 G
She watches through the seasons

G7
Hoping without reason

  C                                 G
That someday someone will call her home

   G
But life goes on without her
No one ever ask about her
 C                              D
Or lets her know that she's not alone
[Chorus 3]
  C
It breaks her heart that down below

  D
Rivers run, flowers grow

  G                        C
But she can't feel them bloom

 Am
Poor little thing

     D/F#                G
She's just a jealous moon
[Verse 4]
  G
The nights are getting colder

  G7
Stars are growing bolder

  C                                G
As they paint their final light across the sky

  G
But closer to the atmosphere
She prays for clouds to disappear
 C                                   D
So she could say goodnight and say goodbye
[Chorus 4]
  C
She never really goes away

  D
Just hidden by another day

  G                       C
That always comes too sounds

   Am
Poor little thingG

     D/F#              G
She's just a jealous moon

  Am
Poor little thing

      D/F#             G
She's just a jealous moon
