The Moon Is My Companion

Chorus

   G            D         G            C                         G                               

The moon is my companion,   on snowy nights like this

         G                                                                                                     D                         

      Miles and miles from my....sweetheart,   with her warm and tender kiss.

        G                                                    C                    G

1.   Twenty years ago in the cold of winter,   Mama told me plain...

                G                                    Em                D            G

She said "Listen here son,  look to the moon,  if you ever need a friend...

                G                                                                        C                            G

2.  'Cause soon enough you'll find yourself all grown up....and thrown from town to town...

                G                                        Em           D                        G

But the same old moon will be there to guide you,  if you lose your ground

REPEAT CHORUS / INSTRUMENTAL VERSE

3.   I've been down this road before in a golden kind of dream...

The moon is like her precious heartbeat,  when she's next to me....
