[Intro]
G  D  Em  C  D


[Chorus]
    Em                C
The last that ever she saw him
D                 G         D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
   Em                   C
He passed on worried and warning
D                 G         D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow.


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


[Chorus]
    Em                       C
The trees that whisper in the evening
D                 G         D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
       Em                C
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving
D                 G         D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow


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


[Interlude]
D
I stay I pray
      G      C      D
I see you in heaven far away
D
I stay I pray
      G      C      D
I see you in heaven far away


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


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


[Interlude]
D
I stay I pray
      G      C      D
I see you in heaven far away
D
I stay I pray
      G      C      D
I see you in heaven one day


[Solo]
Em  C  D  G  D
Em  C  D  G  D  G  D
Em   C                D
Far away on the other side.
G  D  Em  C  D
Em  C  D  G  D
Em  C  D  G  D
G                         D                Em  C  D
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
G                           D
The night was heavy but the air was alive
    Em            C           D            Em  C  D
She couldn't find how to push through
G                 D                     Em  C  D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
G                 D                  G  D
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Em   C                D
      Far away on the other side.
