_ _ _ [D] Flashes, _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [Gm] you saw the plan.
[C] I wandered out [G] in the world for years, [C] _ _ _ [G] while you just stayed [F] in your room.
I saw [D] the crescent, _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ you saw the whole [C] of the moon.
_ _ [G] _ The whole [F] of the moon.
_ _ [D] _ _ _
[C] You were there in a turnstile, with the wind at your heels.
You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels [F] to reach too high, _ [F] too far, _ too soon.
_ [D] You saw the whole [C] of the moon.
I was grounded, _ _ _ _ _ while you filled the [F] skies.
I was dumbfounded by truth.
_ _ _ _ You cut through [C] lies, I saw a green dirty valley. _ _
_ _ _ _ You saw a [F] brigadoon, _ I saw the crescent. _ _
_ _ _ _ You saw the whole [C] of the moon.

[F] I wondered, I guessed and [C] I tried. _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Em] You just [C] knew, I sighed. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ But [C] you _ [F] swooned, I saw the crescent. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You saw the whole [C] of the moon.
_ _ [G] _ The whole [F] of the moon.
A _ [D] _ _ _ _
[C] torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels.
You climbed on the ladder and you know how it feels [F] to get too high, _ [D] too far, _
[F] too soon.
_ [F] You saw the whole [C] of the moon.
_ _ [G] _ The whole [F] of the moon. _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and spheres.
Trumpets, towers and tenements, wide oceans full of tears.
[F] Flags, rags, ferryboats, cimadors and stars.
Every precious dream and vision [D] underneath the stars, yes.
[C] You climbed on the ladder, with the wind in your sails.
You came like a comet, blazing your trail [F] too high, _ [D] too far, _ too soon.
_ You saw the whole [C] of the moon. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I'm happy to see the moon.
