Verse I
GBefore there ever was a you and me
The endless void of a dark black sea
DAnd a gianCt oysteGr, the mother of all things
And tDhe oyster made a pearl
And Cthe pearlG became the world
And Dthe world began to turn
And Cthe suGn began to burn
ThenAm one day I met you and I fell in love
And Cyou broke my Dtender heart and so here we are
Chorus
But thereC was always the moon
TherDe was alwayCs the moon
TherDe was alwayCs the moon
TherDe was alwayGs the moon
Verse II
GBefore there ever was a you and me
The slender branch of a gentle tree
And Da big red Cfruit thaGt hung low to the ground
AndD you picked it out of spite
And Cyou tooGk a careless bite
And Dthe world was not the same
AnCd we all kGnow who to blame
So noAmw when you think of me do you think of when
ThereC was still a Dchance but it’s over so here we are
Chorus
But thereC was always the moon
TherDe was alwayCs the moon
TherDe was alwayCs the moon
TherDe was alwayGs the moon
Verse III
GRemember when there was a you and me?
When there was such a thing as gravity?
And the tDides camCe in and Gthe tides went out again
ButD the water got too high
AndC the suGn began to die
AnDd I tried to make you stay
But Cthe worGld pulled you away
And now Amthere are darker longer colder nights
And the sCun has gone foDr good and so here we are
Chorus
But thereC is always the moon
TherDe is alwaysC the moon
TherDe is alwaysC the moon
TherDe is alwaysG the moon
