Verse 1:
     G+G         C majorC       D MajorD     E minorEm  C majorC   G+G
There's a house somewhere I know where the fires burn all night long
     G+G          C majorC       D MajorD      E minorEm
There's a swing outside on the porch where I feel I could
   D MajorD    C majorC
Rock away the dusk til the dawn
  A minorAm              G+G
And even though the wind may be howlin'
A minorAm            C majorC       D MajorD
Stars are bright and they push me on and on

Chorus:
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD      E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G
There's a cold wind blowin' across the great divide
    C majorC     G+G    D MajorD       E minorEm
And the stars they guide my way across the night
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G        D MajorD
There's a half moon rising, pushin me on to another mountain top
D MajorD      G+G         D MajorD
Push me on, no I'll never stop, push me on home
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD          G+G C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies tonight

Verse 2:
    G+G         C majorC       D MajorD
Now the shoes on my feet, those soles broken down
E minorEm       C majorC        G+G
And my coat is tattered and worn
    G+G          C majorC       D MajorD      E minorEm
And the hunger in my belly, and the fever in my head
   D MajorD    C majorC
Will vanish 'ere my first glimpse of home
    A minorAm              G+G
And even though the rain may now be fallin'
A minorAm            C majorC       D MajorD
The passion is deep and pushes me on

Chorus:
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD      E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G
There's a cold wind blowin' across the great divide

     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD       E minorEm
And the stars they guide my way across the night
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G        D MajorD
There's a half moon rising, pushin me on to another mountain top
D MajorD      G+G         D MajorD
Push me on, no I'll never stop, push me on home
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD          G+G C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies tonight

    G+G         C majorC       D MajorD
There's a still at dawn like the sound of your love's breath
E minorEm  C majorC   G+G
As she lies sleeping
 G+G  C majorC       D MajorD      E minorEm
Down below me now in the valley
    D MajorD    C majorC
Is the only piece on earth that I ever want to know
A minorAm              G+G
And her lips are as soft as I remember
A minorAm            C majorC       D MajorD
She alone has brought me back on home

Chorus:
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD      E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G
There's a cold wind blowin' across the great divide
    C majorC     G+G    D MajorD       E minorEm
And the stars they guide my way across the night
     C majorC     G+G    D MajorD        G+G        D MajorD
There's a half moon rising, pushin me on to another mountain top
D MajorD      G+G         D MajorD
Push me on, no I'll never stop, push me on home
     C majorC     G+G     D MajorD          G+G C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
There's a half moon rising in southeastern skies tonight
