DESERT MOON by Dennis Deyoung [Intro] D Bm G A D Bm G ...A D D D D
                  D             
Is this the train to Desert Moon

    Bm
was all she said.

     G
But I knew I'd heard that 

A                     D
stranger's voice before.

D
I turned to look into her eyes, 

Bm
but she moved away.

         Em
She was standing in the rain.

       C
Trying hard to speak my name.

           Bm       A           G
They say first love never runs dry.

D
The waiter poured our memories 

     Bm
into tiny cups.

    G
We stumbled over 

A                    D
words we longed to hear.

D
We talked about the dreams we'd lost, 

   Bm
or given up.

         Em
When the whistle caught the night.

          C
And shook silence from our lives.

       Bm
As the last train 

A                 G                    
rolled toward the moon.

D
Those summer nights.When we were young.
We bragged of things, We'd never done.
        G                                    
We were dreamers, 

        A
only dreamers.

D
And in our haste, to grow too soon,
We left our innocence on Desert Moon.
G                       A
We were dreamers, only dreamers.

           G
On Desert Moon.

           D
On Desert Moon.

           G
On Desert Moon.

       D
Desert Moon.
F A D Bm G A D Bm G A
D
I still can hear the whisper 

        Bm
of the summer nights.

    G                  
It echoes in the 

A               D
corners of my heart.

D
The night we stood and 

                Bm
waited for the desert train.

        Em                     
All the words we meant to say.

        C                   
All the chances swept away.

           Bm       A          G
Still remain on the road to the dune.

           D
Those summer nights, 
when we were young. We bragged of things we'd never done.
        G
We were dreamers, 

      A
only dreamers.

D
Moments pass, 
and time moves on. But dreams remain for just as long,
           G
As there's dreamers.

        A
All the dreamers.

          G
On Desert Moon.

           D
On Desert Moon.

           G
On Desert Moon.

          D
Desert Moon
Repeat and fade... - this is my best guess by picking my guitar along with the .mp3 - enjoy! Page Gedney 2/23/2011
