[Intro]
B  F#  G#m  E  F#


[Chorus]
    G#m                E
The last that ever she saw him
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
   G#m                   E
He passed on worried and warning
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.


[Verse]
B                    F#
Lost in a river last Saturday night
G#m  E          F#
Far away on the other side.
       B                         F#
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
        G#m           E           F#
And she couldn't find how to push through


[Chorus]
    G#m                       E
The trees that whisper in the evening
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
       G#m                E
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow


[Verse]
B                 F#
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun
G#m  E          F#
Far away on the other side.
       B                   F#
He was shot six times by a man on the run
        G#m           E           F#
And she couldn't find how to push through


[Interlude]
F#
I stay I pray
      B      E      F#
I see you in heaven far away
F#
I stay I pray
      B      E      F#
I see you in heaven far away


[Chorus]
G#m            E
Four AM in the morning
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
  G#m                 E
I watched your vision forming
F#                 B         F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow


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


[Interlude]
F#
I stay I pray
      B      E      F#
I see you in heaven far away
F#
I stay I pray
      B      E      F#
I see you in heaven one day


[Solo]

B                         F#                G#m  E  F#
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
B                           F#
The night was heavy but the air was alive
    G#m            E           F#            G#m  E  F#
She couldn't find how to push through
B                 F#                     G#m  E  F#
Carried away by a moonlight shadow

Carried away by a moonlight shadow
G#m   E                F#
      Far away on the other side.
