G5
Pretty little girl on the side of the road

Yellow hair in a yellow bow

Little thumb sticking in the exit lane

Two packs of smokes and a candy cane
      C5
With women hips and baby lips
                                    G5
A Hallelujah book in the back of a pillow-slip
    D5
If she gets out of here too soon
D5                                 G5
She'll run fast by the shy of the moon


G5
She's been havin' the same old dreams

Of lullabies and pale blue skies

Fallen asleep beneath the stars
                                    C5
Orion aims and shoots his arrows oh so far

Aims 'em hard
                                         G5
He shoots the moon and takes her as his own reward
D5
If she's gonna see those stars too soon
D5                                G5
She'll run fast by the shy of the moon

G5
If she found out so long ago 

That she wants more than all she knows

The river ends right as she goes
                                        C5
Water breaks and she's gone down in the undertow
                                                     G5
She's below, but I'll stand tall and hold up high my mistletoe
D5
She's gonna shine just like brand new
D5                                                  G5
She'll take my hand and we'll run by the shy of the moon
