  [lyrics]

      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(strongly...)
  I stay I pray

        E      A      B   
  I see you in heaven far away

  B(strongly...)
  I stay I pray

        E      A      B 
  I see you in heaven one day

  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(strongly...)
  I stay I pray

        E      A      B 
  I see you in heaven far away

  B(strongly...)
  I stay I pray

        E      A      B   
  I see you in heaven one day
