G F Am Am

[Verse 1]
G         F              Am
  Are you mad or are you fantasy?
G             F                  Am
  Lighting my darkness since you left
G        F             Am
  I had all of love revealed to me
             C
Now there's only theft
G             F             Am
I walk these halls like a prisoner
G                   F
'Cause they want to save
        Am
me from myself
G                F
  They tell me stories
               Am
  you've gone crazier
       C                    D
I can use a little help myself

[Chorus]
         Em
I am the moon
            C
You are the sun
            G            F
And look at you flaming out
             Am        D
in front of everyone
           Em
You are a star
        C
I am a stone
         G        F   Am
Up here spinning alone

[Verse 2]
G             F               Am
I tasted your wine and your ecstasy
G              F       Am
 Until I disappeared, never to return
G         F           Am
 On this secret anniversary
         C
I still feel your burn
        D
Tell me what has loved earned?

         Em
I am the moon
             C
You are the sun

And look at you flaming out
                Am      D
in front of everyone
           Em
You are a star
         C
I am a stone
             G    F   Am
Up here spinning alone
           Em
I am the night
             C
You are the day
             G         F
And we have only this mad
         Am     D
love to blame
         Em
I held a tide of tears
       C
every night for years
                G         F  Am
But now you're washing away
             G        F  Am
With every passing day
             G       F    Am
You're just washing away
            E      D  C
I am the moon (ah ah ah)
D            E    D  C
I am the moon (ah ah ah)
D            E     D  C
I am the moon (ah ah ah)
D           E      D  C
I am the moon (ah ah ah)
D           E     D   C
I am the moon (ah ah ah,
I am the moon)
D               E
I am, I am the moon,
