Verse I
G5
Before there ever was a you and me 

The endless void of a dark black sea 
D5                     C5                  G5
And a giant oyster, the mother of all things 
         D5
And the oyster made a pearl 
        C5                    G5
And the pearl became the world 
        D5
And the world began to turn 
        C5             G5
And the sun began to burn 
            A5
Then one day I met you and I fell in love 
        C5                                D5
And you broke my tender heart and so here we are 

Chorus
                     C5
But there was always the moon 
        D5          C5
There was always the moon 
        D5          C5
There was always the moon 
        D5          G5
There was always the moon 

Verse II
G5
Before there ever was a you and me 

The slender branch of a gentle tree 
    D5                     C5                    G5      
And a big red fruit that hung low to the ground 
       D5      
And you picked it out of spite 
        C5                  G5
And you took a careless bite 
        D5
And the world was not the same 
      C5                 G5
And we all know who to blame 
             A5
So now when you think of me do you think of when 
         C5                                    D5
There was still a chance but it?s over so here we are 

Chorus
                     C5
But there was always the moon 
        D5          C5
There was always the moon 
        D5          C5
There was always the moon 
        D5          G5
There was always the moon 

Verse III
G5
Remember when there was a you and me? 

When there was such a thing as gravity? 
         D5                   C5                G5
And the tides came in and the tides went out again 
       D5            
But the water got too high 
       C5              G5
And the sun began to die 
      D5                  
And I tried to make you stay 
        C5                  G5
But the world pulled you away 
                A5
And now there are darker longer colder nights 
         C5                                 D5
And the sun has gone for good and so here we are 

Chorus
                     C5
But there is always the moon 
        D5          C5
There is always the moon 
        D5          C5
There is always the moon 
        D5          G5
There is always the moon
