Greg Brown - Ring around the moon

We don't know when we came^Em; you know it's been so long ^Am Everything is the same;^F so let's do one more ^Csong Ring around the moon^Em; long, long time 'til day ^Am Play me one more tune;^F please don't go a^Cway

You be the mandolin^Em; I'll be the steel guitar ^Am You dance out and in;^F I'll cry up so ^Cfar Long, ^Emlong time 'til day ^Am Play me one more tune;^F please don't go a^Cway

Everybody's been alone^Em, been to the parade ^Am Trying to find the bones^F of this masque^Crade And there's a ring around the moon^Em; long, long time 'til day ^Am Play me one more tune;^F please don't go a^Cway

Love she always passes^Em lightly and away ^Am Like a lioness gets restless^F when she comes to ^Cstay And there's a ring around the moon^Em; long, long time 'til day ^Am Play me one more tune;^F please don't go a^Cway

Picking on the strings^Em, tapping of your feet ^Am Well, these are age-old things,^F but who can say how ^Csweet When there's a ring around the moon^Em; long, long time 'til day ^Am Play me one more tune;^F please don't go a^Cway
