Intro-

C
I met an old man, He said:
C
"Son, I don't know You
     F
But love is a three card trick
 F
Watch and I'll show You
    Am
How You turn Your head
         Am
When She walks in the room
         F
'Cos You can't see the stars
         F
For the halo around the moon.

          C
He said, "Don't try to hide it
         C
And don't look surprised
       F
And no Son, don't You lie to Me
      F
It's there in Your eyes
         Am
You're a ship on Her rocks
      Am
In a storm and You're doomed
         F
'Cos You can't see the stars
        F
For the halo around the moon

 C                     C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
 G                     G
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
       Am                        Am
You're kidding Yourself, if You think You're immune
      F
Just can't see the stars-
        F
For the halo around the moon

       C
If the ocean is crying
     C
You don't dry Her tears
     F
If a mermaid is singing -
    F
You cover Your ears
           Am
Or they'll take You and they'll drown You
         Am
In Their salty perfume
         F
When You can't see the stars
         F
For the halo around the moon."

 C                     C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
 G                     G
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
       Am                       Am
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune
      F
Just can't see the stars -
        F
For the halo around the moon

   C
I looked at that old man
      C
'n' I saw that He spoke
            F
Through the fog of the whisky
     F
All mirrors and smoke
          Am
Like some poet who whined
         Am
About a flower in bloom
          F
With some tired old line
         F
About a halo and a moon

            C
I said: "I know love and Her traps
         C
And You thought
       F
That a free man like Me
        F
Would fall in and get caught?
         Am
Well You must be the dumbest
    Am
Old man in the world!"
      | F / / / |
And I left him right there
           /
To go 'n' talk to a girl.....

 C                     C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
 G                     G
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
       Am                       Am
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune
      F
Just can't see the stars -
        F
For the halo around the moon

 C                     C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
 G                     C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
       Am                       Am
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune
      F
Just can't see the stars -
        F
For the halo around the moon
