[Chorus]
    Cm                G#
The last that ever she saw him

Carried away by a moonlight shadow

Carried away by a moonlight shadow.

Lost in a river last Saturday night

Far away on the other side.

The trees that whisper in the evening

Sing a song of sorrow and grieving

Carried away by a moonlight shadow

All she saw was a silhouette of a gun

Far away on the other side.

And she couldn't find how to push through

I stay I pray

I see you in heaven far away

I stay I pray
      D#      G#      A#
I see you in heaven far away


[Chorus]
Cm            G#
Four AM in the morning
A#                 D#         A#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
  Cm                 G#
I watched your vision forming
A#                 D#         A#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow


[Verse]
D#                   A#
Star was light in a silvery night
Cm  G#          A#
Far away on the other side
         D#               A#
Will you come to talk to me this night
        Cm            G#           A#
But she couldn't find how to push through

I stay I pray
      D#      G#      A#
I see you in heaven far away

I stay I pray
      D#      G#      A#
I see you in heaven one day
