Shoot the Moon

C   G/B  Am  C/G  F  C/E  F  G

[Verse]

C           G/B     Am        C/G
The summer days are gone too soon
 F            C/E     F         G
You shoot the moon, miss completely
C           G/B     Am        C/G
And now you've left to face the gloom,
F          C/E        F             G
The empty room, that once smelled sweetly
 Am          G         Am/F#       F
Of all the flowers you plucked if finally
 C    G/B     Am  G/B
you knew the reason.
Am       G     Am/F#    F
Why you had to each be lonely.
C       G/B     C   G
Was it just the season.
C       G/B     Am    C/G
Now the fall is here again
F            C/E     F         G
You can't begin to give in, it's all over.
C         G/B        Am       C/G
When the snows come rolling through
F              C/E  F             G
you've rolling too with some new lover.

[Chorus]

Am          G      Am/F#       F
Will you think of times you've told me
     C    G/B     Am  G/B
That you knew the reason
Am      G     Am/F#    F
Why we had to each be lonely.
C       G/B     C   G
Was it just the season.

C   G/B  Am  C/G  F  C/E  F  G  (x2)

[Chorus]

Am          G      Am/F#       F
Will you think of times you've told me
     C    G/B     Am  G/B
That you knew the reason
Am      G     Am/F#    F
Why we had to each be lonely.
C       G/B     C   G
Was it just the season.
