Tom Paxton - Looking For The Moon lyrics
Your rating:
F Dm 1. My heart is in the mountains, while my body is on this train, G G7 C my head is anywhere but in today. C C7 F Dm It's cloudy in the city, and they say it looks like rain, G G7 C got just one time long to hear the conductor say. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - F - G Are you looking for the moon ? Em - Am Would you dance with her tonight ? F - G Would you chase her cross the shadows, C - C7 as she goes sifting out of sight ? F - G Leaving common sense behind you, Em - Am for a joy that ends so soon, F G rushing through the forest blind, never knowing what you find, C looking for the moon. + Dm - G - C C C7 F Dm 2. The train is filled with strangers and every stop there's more, G G7 C we're racing towards the glass and granite walls. C C7 F Dm While I‘m dreaming of my river where the rushing rapids grow, G G7 C and from somewhere deep inside my spirit calls. + CHORUS + CHORUS as instrumental C C7 F Dm 3. We pull into the station and I join the taxi line, G G7 C it's raining now like it means to rain all day. C C7 F Dm This city has ten million dreams, not one of them is mine, G G7 C so I turn myself around and I walk away. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - F - G And I'll go looking for the moon, Em - Am and I'll dance with her tonight ? F - G and I'll chase her cross the shadows, C - C7 as she goes slipping out of sight. F - G Leaving common sense behind me, Em - Am for a joy that ends so soon, F G rushing through the forest blind, never knowing what I find, C looking for the moon. F G Rushing through the forest blind, never knowing what I find, C looking for the moon. Dm - G - C Are you looking for the moo……..n ?
