Capo III in F
D G A
Caught in the middle of a moonbeam
D G A Bm7 F#m7
A flicker of light
F#m7 Em7 A F#m7 B7
I took a look and then it run away
B7 Em7 A G
Back on into the night, oh.
D G A
Stopped, stopped in the tickin^Ò of my heartbeat
D G A Bm7 F#m7
A look in his eye
F#m7 Em7 A F#m7 B7
Had the hunger of a mountain lion
B7 Em7 A F#
And the thunder in fire

F# G A D F#
And every time he appears it comes as a surprise
G A
He thinks he^Òs clever as foxfire
D A/C# Bm7 A
Dancin^Ò on a distant rise
G A Bm7 F#m7
Then when I catch that devil, ooh
E7 E7 A G7
There^Òs gonna be a slow-down; There^Òs gonna be a mighty slow-down.
D G A
Caught in the embers of my night fire
D G A Bm7 F#m7
In the cracklin^Ò and glow
F#m7 Em7 A F#m7 B7
I get to feeling he^Òs a-watching me
B7 Em7 A F#
Somewhere there in the cold
F# G A D F#
And one of these days I^Òm thinking I^Òll take him by surprise
G A D A/C# Bm7 A
He^Òs not so clever as foxfire, dancing on the distant rise
G A Bm7 F#m7
And when I catch that devil, ooh.
E7 E7 A G7
There^Òs gonna be a slow-down; There^Òs gonna be a mighty slow-down.
