I can't vouch on how accurate this is but I hope this tab can be helpful to someone out there This version is somewhat based on the AFWP version of Moonbeam [Intro] G C G [Verse 1]
G                                    C     G
I had a dream that you came to me shining down

                             C
Through the clouds like a moonbeam

           G
There you were

G                                     C    G
And you wore nothing more than your raven hair

                     C
In the air like a moonbeam

          G   Em
Here you were
[Pre-Chorus] - Strum Em briefly before pulling off to G
G                          C      Em
And you pulled me from a nightmare

G                         C      Em
With your eyes and your silver touch

        G               C         Em
Shone a little bit of light there

G                        C
Now the darkness don’t scare me much
[Instrumental] - From the live videos Ben holds on to the 3rd fret on the E string while picking

[Verse 2]
G                                      C        G
You can feign your surprise, give me those doe eyes

                    C
But I know I wanna love you

      G
Yes I do

G                                 C      G
We can dance to the beat while I tap my feet

                            C
On the stars, you’re gonna like me

          G  Em
Yeah you are
[Pre-Chorus]
G                         C        Em
When you saved me from a bad dream

G                       C        Em
I was drifting through time and space

        G            C     Em
But I landed on a moonbeam

 G                    C
Take me out of this place
[Chorus]
 G            Em        D       Em
The world is dark the night is long

         G                       C         G
I could use a few laughs and a couple of songs

 G            Em    D        Em
The sun will rise above the hills

             G                   C        G
You’ll be leaving me soon, like hell you will

 G             Em   D       Em
The awe when gazing at the moon

          G                          C         G
Is the feeling that I get when I’m lookin’ at you

 G            Em       D        Em
The sun will rise and fade the star

              G                   C        G
And you’re leaving me soon, like hell you are

              G                   C        G
And you’re leaving me soon, like hell you are

[Outro]
G        Em             C           Em     G
I had a dream that you came to me shining down

                             C
Through the clouds like a moonbeam

            G
There you were

G        Em             C           Em     G
I had a dream that you came to me shining down

                             C
Through the clouds like a moonbeam

            G
There you were
