🎸 Verse 1:
C majorC           G+G        FF
Little boy sits by the light of the moon
        E minorEm       FF        G+G
Knows that he's lost something precious too soon
     C majorC         G+G      FF
And he's quietly singing a nursery tune
       E minorEm      G+G
Sings for whoever may hear him

Then one day he finds for whatever it's worth
         E minorEm      DmDm        G+G
The moon and the stars and the blue spinning earth
    C majorC            G+G      FF
They'll all come and go through death and rebirth
            E minorEm
And the ones that he's lost will be near him

From thе far away nearby, bye, bye
