When the moon is up and shining

        F                  C
On the fields a long time bright

                 G          C
Where the crops    one time grew

           C
There's a black and gold horizon

            F                       C
Through the trees in the purple moonlight

            G           C
Welcome to    what you knew

           F                                  C
There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness

          Am             G        
Covers up   a night so blue

        F                                   Am
And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it

      G
From view

        C
In the idle some grow restless

     F                       C
And imagine something more right

                G          C
Sometimes don't   think it through

         C
So they saddle up the ponies 

          F                  C
And they ride off into the night

               G            C
One time more,   sometimes blue

           F                              C
Sometimes then the only colors they can dream of

            Am            G
Double back   and catch a few

        F                                    Am
Of the crazy moonlight dragons they've been chasing

            G
Through the hills

        C
Now the mist is growing thicker

          F                 C
And it's getting harder to play

               G         C
Sometimes now    mostly true

         C
So they gather 'round the fire 

         F             C
And they lie the time away

                G           C
Sometimes blue,   sometimes blue

           F                                  C
There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness

          Am           G        
Covers up   a night so blue

        F                                     Am
And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it

      G
