intro: C, Am, F, G, C x 3

C                                  Am
My lady left her lamplight burning praying for my safe return
     F              G                 C
In a moment I'll be nothing more than gone
         C                                Am
Well the highway turns and burns its greed fulfilling every sinner's need
F              G             C
Slowly turning pilgrims into pawns
   C                               Am
So I'm out the door and in my truck she wishes me the best of luck
    F        G               C
And waves as I pull down the drive
    C                              Am
And I'm swallowed up into the night safe behind these dashboard lights
F                G           C
I thank God that somehow I'm still alive


Chorus
Am      G              C
And the moon is almost full tonight
Am    G                 C                 F
I can see for miles and miles beneath its light
         F               G                 C
Yeah the coyotes must be crazy down in the countryside
Am     G              C
And my heart it is on fire it seems
Am      G         C                F
Burning images of my old childhood dreams
         F                           G
And they swell like an angel born in flight
                        C
Like the moon is almost full tonight


first interlude: C, Am, F, G, C x 2

         C                                 Am
Well the night cruised by in awesome wonder cast beneath the rolling thunder
     F           G                  C
As I cut a path across these golden fields
C                                    Am
Thoughts of her go floating backwards hoping happy ever afters
    F                      G                 C
And raindrops from heavens rafters are on my windshield
C                                    Am
Well lets turn into a new day darling try to hear your own heart calling
    F                 G             C
The time is now there is no time to wait
C                                Am
Follow on that path you've chosen slowly melting come unfrozen
F                         G    C
Releave your guard of its duty at your gate


Chorus
Am      G              C
And the moon is almost full tonight
Am    C                 G                 F
I can see for miles and miles beneath its light
         F               G                 C
Yeah the coyotes must be crazy down in the countryside
Am     G              C
And my heart it is on fire it seems
Am      G         C                F
Burning images of my old childhood dreams
         F                           G
And they swell like an angel born in flight
                        C
Like the moon is almost full tonight


Solo: Am for six bars and then F, G into the intro


C                                  Am
My lady left her lamplight burning praying for my safe return
     F              G                 C
In a moment I'll be nothing more than gone
