D    G    A

Verse:

  D               G               A
I sat outside one afternoon in an old lawn chair
      D                   G               A
And I watched the sun set off for business west somewhere
        Bm                G              D         A
While the sky turned watercolor pink and gold and blue
        Bm                  G                 D              A
And the stars all showed up one by one and we waited for the moon
      Bm                      G            D                  G
And I thought 'bout you and I wondered why it took so long to say goodbye
    D                    G              D            G
You shined so bright you blinded me and left me so I couldn't see

Chorus:
         D    G            A
I was the moon chasing the sun
          D       Em            G         A
There was never a prayer of ever catching up
          D  G             A
No matter how fast I would run
         Bm   G           A
Like the moon chasing the sun
             D    G            A
Just like the moon chasing the sun

Interlude:
D  G  A

Verse:
D                             G                      A
  The crickets called and the moon peeked out to the eastern sky
D                   G             A
They both start up about this time each night
       Bm                     G         D                 A
And an evening breeze stopped by and brought some sweet relief
Bm                     G            D       A
In the silver light I finally let go of the heat
      Bm                      G           D                   G
and I thought 'bout you and I wondered why it took so long to say goodbye
    Bm                   G               D           G
You shined so bright you blinded me and left me so I couldn't see

Chorus:
         D    G            A
I was the moon chasing the sun
          D       Em            G         A
There was never a prayer of ever catching up
          D  G             A
No matter how fast I would run
         Bm   G           A
Like the moon chasing the sun
             D    G            A
Just like the moon chasing the sun
