[lyrics]
C#m A
The last that ever she saw him
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
C#m A
He passed on worried and warning
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
E B
Lost in a river last Saturday night
C#m A B
Far away on the other side
E B
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
C#m A B
And she couldn't find how to push through
C#m A
The trees that whisper in the evening
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
C#m A
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
E B
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
C#m A B
Far away on the other side
E B
He was shot six times by a man on the run
C#m A B
And she couldn't find how to push through
B(strongly...)
I stay I pray
E A B
I see you in heaven far away
B(strongly...)
I stay I pray
E A B
I see you in heaven one day
C#m A
Four am in the morning
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
C#m A
I watched your vision forming
B E B
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
E B
Star was light in a silvery night
C#m A B
Far away on the other side
E B
Will you come to talk to me this night
C#m A B
But she couldn't find how to push through
B(strongly...)
I stay I pray
E A B
I see you in heaven far away
B(strongly...)
I stay I pray
E A B
I see you in heaven one day
