CAPO: 3rd Fret
[Intro]
G C G
[Verse 1]
C
See her how she flies
G Am G
Golden sails across the sky
C Am D
Close enough to touch
Bm7 Em
But careful if you try
C D Em C
Though she looks as warm as gold
G Am G
The moon's a harsh mistress
C G
The moon can be so cold
[Verse 2]

Once the sun did shine
G Am G
Lord, it felt so fine
C Am D
The moon a phantom rose
Bm7 Em
Through the mountains and the pines
C D Em C
And then the darkness fell
G Am G
And the moon's a harsh mistress
C
It's so hard to love her well
[Verse 3]

I fell out of her eyes
Bb Cm Bb
I fell out of her heart

I fell down on my face
Dm7 Eb
I tripped and missed my star

God, I fell and fell alone
Bb Cm Bb
And the moon's a harsh mistress
Eb
And the sky is made of stone
Bb Cm Bb
The moon's a harsh mistress

She's hard to call your own
