Capo III in F

D                         G   A
Caught in the middle of a moonbeam
D            G  A  Bm7 F#m7
A flicker of light
F#m7                      Em7    A F#m7 B7
I took a look and then it run away
B7               Em7 A  G
Back on into the night, oh.

D                                     G A
Stopped, stopped in the tickin^? of my heartbeat
D             G A Bm7 F#m7
A look in his eye
F#m7                Em7        A  F#m7 B7
Had the hunger of a mountain lion
B7                 Em7 A  F#
And the thunder in fire

F#  G          A             D          F#
And every time he appears it comes as a surprise
G              A
He thinks he^?s clever as foxfire
D       A/C# Bm7     A
Dancin^? on a distant rise
G           A                 Bm7 F#m7
Then when I catch that devil, ooh
E7                            E7                 A           G7
There^?s gonna be a slow-down; There^?s gonna be a mighty slow-down.

D                          G     A
Caught in the embers of my night fire
D                    G A Bm7 F#m7
In the cracklin^? and glow
F#m7                    Em7        A  F#m7 B7
I get to feeling he^?s a-watching me
B7                     Em7 A   F#
Somewhere there in the cold

F#  G            A                      D           F#
And one of these days I^?m thinking I^?ll take him by surprise
G              A               D       A/C#   Bm7     A
He^?s not so clever as foxfire, dancing on the distant rise
G          A                 Bm7 F#m7
And when I catch that devil, ooh.
E7                            E7                 A           G7
There^?s gonna be a slow-down; There^?s gonna be a mighty slow-down.
