Moonlight Shadow Chords

   
I got these chords from a friend of mine - with them, the song is super easy to 
play. Haven't found anything similar to that. Hope you enjoy it.

Chords are D, Em, C and G. Sounds best in standard tuning.

D    Em                          C
The last that ever she saw him
D                                 G              D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
      Em                                     C
He passed on worries and warning
D                                  G            D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
G                              D
Lost in a river last Saturday night
Em  C                    D
Far away on the other side.
                 G                                         D
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
                  Em              C                    D
And she couldn't find how to push through

       Em                                      C
The trees that whisper in the evening
D                                 G              D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
             Em                              C
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
D                                 G              D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
G                                D
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
Em  C                    D
Far away on the other side.
G                                           D
He was shot six times by a man on the run
                  Em              C                    D
And she couldn't find how to push through

Four am in the morning
D                                 G              D

Far away on the other side.
               G                      D
Will you come to talk to me this night
                  Em              C                    D
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay I pray

I see you in heaven far away

I see you in heaven far away

The night was heavy but the air was alive

She couldn't find how to push through
