Intro : A augmentedA G+G DmDm
A augmentedA G minorGm throughout the whole song
A augmentedA G minorGm
As the sun shines down on the land
A augmentedA G minorGm
So her heart is crying for love
A augmentedA
But there is no-one there
G minorGm
No-one to hear her voice
A augmentedA G minorGm
And she will sleep alone again tonight
A augmentedA G minorGm
Now the moon is high in the sky
A augmentedA G minorGm
In her room, she calls out his name
A augmentedA
But he is somewhere else
G minorGm
Somewhere she cannot see
A augmentedA
Oh and the night is dark between them now
G minorGm
My God, my God, why did he go away?
A augmentedA G minorGm A augmentedA G minorGm
A augmentedA G minorGm
Now the sun shines on a new town
A augmentedA G minorGm
With a smile, he gets off the train
A augmentedA
He lights a cigarette
G minorGm
Leans back to see the sky
A augmentedA
Oh, and he thinks how much better off he is
G minorGm
without her hanging round
(Let's do it now.)

The day is passing by him
And he has nowhere to stay
At a lonely bar-room table
His mind goes back to yesterday
To the girl who's dead and buried
But her face lives in his eyes
He must forget that face forever,
Make the future start tonight
(Again.)
But the meal he eats is dead flesh
There is cancer in his cigarettes
And the drinks won't do a thing for him
But revive some stupid memories
Then a hairstyle that reminds him
Makes him run into the night
Where the moon hangs high above him now
The same moon that she's praying on tonight
But the wind catches her words
And the moon swallows them whole...
Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room she calls out his name
The night is cold and dark
And she is all alone
The bed is empty now
Her body screams for love
She wants to be with him
Oh, but he's so far away
Oh, and the night is dark between them now
