Tex Ritter - Just beyond the moon

^CI'll walk ^Gjust beyond the ^D7moon then I'll stop and wait for ^Gyou ^{C G}

My mother and my father were in love for ^C50 years So when dad ^D7died we wondered why my mother shed no tears

^GWe asked her once about it but she wouldn't tell us why Instead she'd walk ^G7outside each night and ^Csmile up at the sky

Then just before she ^Gleft us she called us to her ^D7side She told us what my father said to her just before he ^Gdied ^C

I re^Gmember when you ^G7said you'd never ^Cleave me Through these ^D7golden years I've kept the same vow ^Gtoo ^D7

But ^Gnow that I am ^G7goin' please don't ^Cleave me I'll walk ^Gjust beyond the ^D7moon then I'll stop and wait for ^Gyou ^{C G}

You can ^D7look up every night and you'll ^Gsee me ^Clight the ^Glight Where I'll ^A7watch for you to join me someday ^D7soon

We'll go ^Glookin' through the stars for the ^Cheaven that is ^A7ours And I ^Gknow we'll find it ^D7soon somewhere just beyond the ^Gmoon ^{C G}

^CI'll walk ^Gjust beyond the ^D7moon then I'll stop and wait for ^Gyou ^{C G}

I'll just ^D7sit there by a star and I'll ^Gwatch you ^Cfrom a^Gfar Till I ^A7see you walking toward me someday ^D7soon

Then to^Ggether hand in hand we'll ^Cfind our promised ^A7land And we'll ^Gsettle down ^D7forever darlin' just beyond the ^Gmoon ^C

I'll walk ^Gjust beyond the ^D7moon then I'll stop and wait for ^Gyou ^{C G}
