Verse:

   C                 G  C     G
I pictured a rainbow,    you held in your hands
 F           G  F          G
I had flashes,    but you saw then plan
   C                    G         C
I wondered out in the world for years
       G                       F
while you just stayed in your room
                  G F G                           C   G
I saw the crescent,    you saw the whole of the moon!
                   F    G
The whole of the moon!

Verse:

         C                                  G
You were there at the turnstiles, with the wind at your heels
    C                                 G
You stretched for the stars, and you know how it feels to reach
     F         G        F     G                         C
too high, too far, too soon, you saw the whole of the moon!


Verse:

             G  C        G
I was grounded,   while you filled the skies
F            G              F  G
I was dumbfounded by truths,   you cut through lies
C                          G C   G
I saw the rain-dirty valley,    you saw Brigadoon
F                 G F G                          C
I saw the crescent,    you saw the whole of the moon!


Interlude: C  G  C  G  F  G  F  G


Bridge:

C                   G Am G
I spoke about wings,    you just flew
  F            C              Dm     G
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried, you just knew
C       G C G      F     G       F                G  F
I sighed,     but you swooned, I saw the crescent
     G                    C    G                    F    G
you saw the whole of the moon,   The whole of the moon!


Verse:

        C                              G
With a torch in your pocket, and the wind at your heels
     C                               G
You climbed on the ladder, and you know how it feels to reach
     F         G        F                  G            C    G
too high, too far, too soon, you saw the whole of the moon!
                  F            G
The whole of the moon, Hey, yeah!

Verse:

C                            G
Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers,
C                                  G
Trumpets, towers, and tenements, wide oceans full of tears,
  F                           G
Flag, rags, ferry boats, scimitars and scarves,
F                                    G
Every precious dream and vision, underneath the stars
      C                           G
Yes, you climbed on the ladder, with the wind in your sails
      C                     G
You came like a comet, blazing your trail
     F         G        F          G                     C
