Intro: D G C



D                 G
   Don't feel bad 
        C             D
Cos the sun went down 
                     G       C  D
The night has wealth un-told 
                        G
Well just keep watching 
        C             D
And you soon will see 
    G            D       
The moon is made of gold 



                    G    C          D
So now the stars ap-pear as they do 
       G       C          D
Heaven they un-fold, yeah 
                   G
But don't feel bad 
            C             D
Because the sun went down 
    G           D        D/Db
The moon is made of gold 



Bm                     Gb
   See how the shadows 
                       Bm
Enhanced by the light above 
                   Gb             /E  /D /Db
Dance in the night as the breezes sigh 
Bm                       Gb
  Soon you will be asleep 
                               Bm
And into your dreams will creep 
                Gb  
Visions of fair-ies 
                   G
Flying through the skies 



D                G
  And one by one 
                 C             D
Your dreams will all come true 
      G         C        D
Magic you’ll be-hold, yes 
               G
Don't feel bad 
            C             D
Because the sun went down 
    G               D
The moon is made of gold
