Shoot The Moon

Intro: G   G  F#  Em  Em  D  Em  C  G  Dm11  D
 
G          G  F#      Em        Em  D
The summer days are gone too soon
 Em  C           G        C        D
You shoot the moon, and miss completely
 G              G  F#     Em       Em  D
And now you're left to face the gloom,
 C         G          C            D
The empty room, that once smelled sweetly
 
Em         Em  D        Em  C#      C     G
Of all the flowers you plucked if only
   D         G      D      Em        Em  D    Em  C#
you knew the reason.           Why you had to each
    Em  C            D        G       D
be lonely.  Was it just the season?
 
G        G  F#    Em    Em  D      Em  C
Now the fall is here again you can't
G         C        D
begin to give in, it's all over.
 
G         G  F#        Em      Em  D    Em  C
When the snows come rolling through
                G         C        D
you're rolling too  with some new lover.
 
Em        Em  D    Em  C#        Em  C       G
Will you think of times you've told me
          D        G     D      Em     Em  D
that you knew the reason        why we had to
Em  C#    Em  C       G        D        G     D
each be lonely.      It was just the season.
