Verse 1:
  BB
Softly the morning light,
      E MajorE
Softly the dew,
BB
Softly my soul will bend,
  F#F#
As she comes in view,
  BB
At dawn she is delicate,
        E MajorE
And burning by noon,
        F#F#      G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
The end of the day will come soon.

Chorus:
          BB
And the stars in my lonely sky,
  E MajorE    BB
Are infinite bright,
    E MajorE       BB
And the stars know my soul will fly,
    F#F#
They're holding it tight.

Verse 2:
BB
There she is rising now,
  E MajorE
My heart it might break,
  BB
The birds in her warmth will fly,
  F#F#
My soul it will ache,
    BB
And the world comes alive for her,
    E MajorE
In awe at her gaze,
         F#F#   G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
And suddenly the sky is ablaze,

Chorus:
          BB
And the stars in my lonely sky,
   E MajorE   BB
Are infinite bright,
    E MajorE       BB
And the stars know my soul will fly,

They're holding it tight.

Verse 3:
BB
Say not her name to me,
      E MajorE
For I live in the shade,
BB
Briefly I see her,
    F#F#
As she starts to fade,
  BB
In silence we pass,
     E MajorE
Our path is well worn,
       F#F#      G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
In silence I wait for the dawn.

They're holding it tight.

Verse 4:
BB
Calmly I drift along,
      E MajorE
Oh I will endure,
 BB
I only belong to her,
  F#F#
Of that I am sure,
   BB
Will I ever hold her,
 E MajorE
I cannot presume,
N.C.
For she's the sun,
  F#F#    G# minorG#m F#F# E MajorE
I'm only the moon.

They're holding it tight.
