Verse I
G
Before there ever was a you and me
The endless void of a dark black sea
D C G
And a giant oyster, the mother of all things
D
And the oyster made a pearl
C G
And the pearl became the world
D
And the world began to turn
C G
And the sun began to burn
Am
Then one day I met you and I fell in love
C D
And you broke my tender heart and so here we are
Chorus
C
But there was always the moon
D C
There was always the moon
D C
There was always the moon
D G
There was always the moon
Verse II
G
Before there ever was a you and me
The slender branch of a gentle tree
D C G
And a big red fruit that hung low to the ground
D
And you picked it out of spite
C G
And you took a careless bite
D
And the world was not the same
C G
And we all know who to blame
Am
So now when you think of me do you think of when
C D
There was still a chance but it’s over so here we are
Chorus
C
But there was always the moon
D C
There was always the moon
D C
There was always the moon
D G
There was always the moon
Verse III
G
Remember when there was a you and me?
When there was such a thing as gravity?
D C G
And the tides came in and the tides went out again
D
But the water got too high
C G
And the sun began to die
D
And I tried to make you stay
C G
But the world pulled you away
Am
And now there are darker longer colder nights
C D
And the sun has gone for good and so here we are
Chorus
C
But there is always the moon
D C
There is always the moon
D C
There is always the moon
D G
There is always the moon
