    C#m                A
The last that ever she saw him

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

   C#m                   A
He passed on worried and warning

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.

E                    B
Lost in a river last Saturday night

C#m  A          B
Far away on the other side.

       E                         B
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight

        C#m           A           B
And she couldn't find how to push through

    C#m                       A
The trees that whisper in the evening

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

       C#m                A
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

E                 B
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun

C#m  A          B
Far away on the other side.

       E                   B
He was shot six times by a man on the run

        C#m           A           B
And she couldn't find how to push through


B
I stay I pray

      E      A      B
I see you in heaven far away


B
I stay I pray

      E      A      B
I see you in heaven far away

C#m            A
Four am in the morning

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

  C#m                 A
I watched your vision forming

B                 E         B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

E                   B
Star was light in a silvery night

C#m  A          B
Far away on the other side

         E               B
Will you come to talk to me this night

        C#m           A           B
But she couldn't find how to push through


B
I stay I pray

      E      A      B
I see you in heaven far away


B
I stay I pray

      E      A      B
I see you in heaven far away

Far away on the other side.


E                         B                 C#m      A      B
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five

E                           B
The night was heavy but the air was alive

    C#m           A           B
She couldn't find how to push through


C#m     A     B                 E         B
              Carried away by a moonlight shadow

C#m     A     B                 E         B
              Carried away by a moonlight shadow

E       B     C#m  A          B
              Far away on the other side.
