Lyrics

[Intro]
| C | G6/B | C | F |
| - | -    | - |

[Chorus]
C                 G6/B
Chimney falls and lovers blaze
Am                 F
Thought that I was young
         C                  G6/B
Now I've freezing hands and bloodless veins
   Am             F
As numb as I've become
       F
I'm so tired

[Pre-Chorus]
  Fm                    C
I wish I was the moon tonight

[Verse 1]
F
Last night I dreamt
       C
I'd forgotten my name
             F
'Cause I had sold my soul
                    Am
But I woke just the same
       F
I'm so lonely
  Fm                 C
I wish I was the moon tonight

[Verse 2]
    C                 Cmaj9/B
God blessed me, I'm a free   man
     Am                 F
With no place free to go
C             Cmaj9/B
Paralyzed and collared-tight
   Am                   F
No pills for what I fear
        F
This is crazy

[Pre-Chorus]
  Fm                    C
I wish I was the moon tonight

[Chorus]
C                Cmaj9/B
Chimney falls as lovers blaze
  Am                 F
I thought that I was young
         C                  Cmaj9/B
Now I've freezing hands and bloodless veins
   Am             F
As numb as I've become
       F
I'm so tired

[Post-Chorus]

I wish I was the moon tonight

[Bridge]

How will you know
                   C
If you found me at last
'Cause I'll be the one, be the one,
Cmaj9/B
be     the one
        Am          F
With my heart in my lap
I'm so tired, I'm so tired
      Fm                    C
And I wish I was the moon tonight
