[F]
The moon is down all [Bb] over town.
The forecast [C] is gray now that she's [F] gone away.
Stars in the sky fell out [Bb] of her eyes.
They shattered [C] when they hit the ground.
And [F] now the moon is down.
The sun will be fine.
It'll still shine [Bb] all the time.
The sky will [C] be blue and do what it's supposed [F] to do.
You see, gravity pulls.
But it can't [Bb] keep you around.
It'll be one [C] long day.
And [F] now the moon is down.
[Bb] The

moon is down all [Bb] over town.
Stars [C] in the sky fell out [F] of her eyes.
Gravity pulls.
But it can't [Bb] hold you down.
It'll be one [C] long day.
And [F] now the moon is down.
It'll be one [C] long day.
And now the moon [F] is down.
[Bb] [F]
