WHOLE OF THE MOON WATERBOYS
[1]
G D C G
I pictured a rainbow, you held it in your hands
C D C D
I had flashes, but you saw the plan
G D C
I wandered out in the world for years,
D C
You just stayed in your room
D C D G
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon
[1]
I was grounded while you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truth, you cut through lies
I saw the rain-dirty valley, you saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon
[2]
G C
You were there at the turnstiles with the wind at your heels
G D
You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels
Em D C
To reach too high, too far, too soon
D G
You saw the whole of the moon
[1]
I spoke about wings, you just flew
I wondered, I guessed and I tried - you just knew
I sighed ...... and you swooned
I saw the crescent, you saw the whole of the moon
[2]
The torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder and you know how it feels
To get too high, too far, too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
Bridge:
-------
G C
Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers
G D
Trumpets, towers and tenements, wide oceans full of tears
Em D
Rags, bags, ferryboats, cylinders and scarvess
C D
Every precious dream and vision underneath the stars
G C
Yes you climbed on the ladder with the wind in your sails
G D
You came like a comet, blazing your trails
Em D C
Too high, too far, too soon
D G
You saw the whole of the moon
C G D G C G D
The whole of the moon
G C G D
Oh, Oh, Oh, did you see the whole of the moon (Repeat)
