and it opened up my eyes

                G           A           D
to get into the light where you belong.

D
under the pale moon,
             G                  A            D
for so many years i've wondered who you are.
                   G                 A
how could a person like you bring me joy?
D
under the pale moon,
              G       A
where i see a lot of stars.

      D
