Half Moon Cifras

[Verse 1]
G                              Em  D
  That morning sky gave me a look
     C/G                  G               D
So I left while you were sleeping, that's all it took
G                                      Em   D
  And I chalked a line south down the coast
       C/G                 G            D
Goin' where my thirst was open for the things that I don't know
       C/G           G               D              Em D
Goin' where I wasn't payin' for the hurt that I owe
 
 
[Verse 2]
G                                Em     D
  One half moon sleeping by the creeks
       C/G          G         D
And a woman put me under her barn roof for a week
G                              Em   D
  I knew her voice before she spake
         C/G            G               Em                D
I saw a grave dug by a preacher just to see what it would make
 
 
[Chorus]
        C                     G
So hold high how faint your reasons
  Em                   D
(Boy, you'll never get on)
             C                  G
Don't you forget you come from nothing
  Em                   D
(Boy, you'll never get on)
             C          G
That wind is calling my name
    Em      D
And I won't wait
        C         G     Em D  Em D
Or I'll never get on
 
 
[Verse 3]
G                              Em    D
  It's not hard to live like a ghost
        C/G                G                D
I just haunt all that I've wanted and leave what I don't
G                            Em   D
  I dreamt a trail up to the sky
       C/G                G              Em                 D
And my brothers built propellers just to see how far they'd fly
 
 
[Chorus]
        C                     G
So hold high how faint your reasons
  Em                   D
(Boy, you'll never get on)
              C                G
Your flashing sparrows chasin' with them
  Em                   D
(Boy, you'll never get on)
             C                      G
Don't you forget you come from nothing
  Em                   D
(Boy, you'll never get on)
             C          G
That wind is calling my name
    Em      D
And I won't wait
        C         G
Or I'll never get on

[Outro Chorus]
        C                      G      Em D
So hold high how faint your reasons
        C                      G      Em D
Hold up high how faint your reasons
     C                      G      Em D
Hold high how faint your reasons
             C          G
That wind is calling my name
    Em      D
And I won't wait
        C         G
Or I'll never get on
