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!

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

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
