Capo on 4th
    Am                 F
The last that ever she saw him
 G                  C           G
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
   Am                    F
He passed on worried and warning
 G                 C          G
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.
 C                    G
Lost in a river last saturday night
 Am   F          G
Far away on the other side.
        C                          G
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
         Am           F            G
And she couldn't find how to push through


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

C  G
I stay
C  G
I pray
       C      F     G
I see you in heaven far away
C   G
I stay
C   G
I pray
       C      F     G
I see you in heaven One day


Four am in the morning
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night
Far away on the other side
Will you come to talk to me this night
But she couldn't find how to push through


I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven far away
I stay
I pray
I see you in heaven one day

(instrumental)

Am   F         G
Far away on the other side.

(still instrumental)

 C                         G
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
     C                      G
The night was heavy but the air was alive
          Am           F           G
But she couldn't find how to push through
 G                  C         G
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
 G                  C         G
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Am   F           G
Far away on the other side.
