(intro)
Em C Bm Am7 Am B
Em B
Now the hour has come at last
D A
The soft and fading light
Em B
Has crossed the west horizon
D A
And has bidden us goodnight
C D
And what a lovely night it is
B Em
To walk a moonlit field
C D
To see the softer shades
B
That are by starlight now revealed
------------
Em B
So why is it that now,
D A
When all is quiet and at rest
Em B
When candles glow and all the world
D A
Is at its very best
C D
The ponies of Equestria
B Em
Should lock themselves away
C D
To shun the moon and wait instead
B
For Sister's sunny day?
--------
B
In umbra Luna est (the moon is in shadow)
------------
Em D
Am I so wrong to wish that they
G C
Would see things like I do?
D G
And am I so wrong to think
C F
That they might love me too?
Em D
Why shouldn't they adore me?
G C
Is it not within my right?
D G
I'll not be overshadowed!
C F
Mine is not the lesser light!
D G
I've waited long enough now
E Am
For them all to come around
B Em
And though the Sun may plead and threaten,
F# F#/A#
The Moon will stand her ground
---------
Bm G
And all will know the wonder
Em F#
Of my dark and jeweled sky
G Em
When all the world is wrapped
F# F#/A#
In an eternal lullaby
Bm G
So say goodnight at this,
Em F#
The final setting of the sun
G Em
Tomorrow dawns in darkness
F# G F# Bm
The nighttime has begun!
