 (Basic Riff)
 He said I must be dreaming 
 But I thought I heard the sound
 The sound that lovers make 
 As they drop down from the window
 Quiet as cats, across the courtyard 
 Moving from shadow to shadow
 Past the guards to the forest 
 So quiet in her still reflection
 Drawing them down to the lake, to the center
 Of her attention
 (End of Riff-basic chord sequence)
 
 G         D    C
 Steal the moon tonight
 
 Before the morning
 G         D    C
 Steal the moon tonight
                      G         D  C     G  D  C     G  D  C
 I just never had the strength
 
 G                     D                    C
 And on the westbank a boat is being pulled across the sand
 
 As they move so softly 
 G              D
 They slip into water
 C
 As they don't break the moon's reflection
 G                D
 And drift like a cloud 
 C
 To the center 
                                G  D  
 Beneath the moon's attention
 
 C                              G  D
 Still drawing
 C
 Still drawing
 
 G         D    C
 Steal the moon tonight
 
 Before the morning
 G         D    C
 Steal the moon tonight
 
 G         D
 I want to drown in your moondream
 C
 I've seen you rising from shore to shore
 G         D
 I want to drown in your moondream
 C
 I've seen you rising 
 
 G         D    C
 Steal the moon tonight
 
 G        D          C
 Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinneee
 G        D          C
 Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinneee
 G        D          C
 Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinneee
 
 G  D  C  (and repeat and fade)
