G             Aish
In late September
     C             G
I drove across the prairie
     C          G
The mountains behind me
        G          D
And the ocean beyond
     G             Aish
This country's a coalmine
     C        G
And I'm a canary
     C         G
Turn out the headlights 
        G       D
and the radio on

G               D  
I remember the words
D             E
I forget the tune
E                C
The light of the moon
E                G
The light of the moon
G          D  
Under the stars, 
D                 E 
you stagger and swoon
E                C
The light of the moon
E                G
The light of the moon

G             Aish
Sunrise oh sunrise
  C             G
Will you wait for me
  C             G
Don't come too soon
            G                D
Through the night's deep abyss
G             Aish
Flirt the waitress 
C             G
in Sault Ste Marie
C             G
Hear music and voices 
  G                D
through static and hiss

Chorus, same as above
I remember the words
I forget the tune
The light of the moon
The light of the moon
Under the stars, you stagger and swoon
The light of the moon
The light of the moon
The light of the moon
