{t:Shine On Harvest Moon}
{st:Bayes, Norworth, 1908}
[Em]The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see,
For the moon refused to [B7]shine. [Bbmaj7] [B7]
[Em]Couple sitting underneath a willow tree, For [A7]love they did [D7]pine.
[D7]Little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness So she [G]said, "I guess I'll go."
[A7]Boy began to [A9]sigh, [A7]looked up at the [A9]sky,
And [A7]told the moon his [A9]little tale of [D7]woe [Db7] [D7]
{c:Chorus:}
{soc}
Oh, [E7+5]Shine [E7]on, [E7+5]shine on, [E7]harvest [A7]moon Up in the sky;
[D7]I ain't had no lovin' Since [G]April, [C]January, [G]June or July.
[E7+5]Snow [E7]time [E7+5]ain't no [E7]time to [A7]stay Outdoors and spoon;
So [D7]shine on, shine on, harvest [G]moon, For [D7]me and my [G]gal.
{eoc}
[Em]I can't see why a boy should sigh when by his side
Is the girl he loves so [B7]true, [Bbmaj7] [B7]
[Em]All he has to say is: "Won't you be my bride, For [A7]I love [D7]you,
I [D7]can't see why I'm telling you this secret, When I [G]know that you can guess."
[A7]Harvest moon will [A9]smile, [A7]Shine on all the [A9]while,
[A7]If the little [A9]girl should answer [D7]"yes." [Db7] [D7]
{c:Chorus:}
{soc}
Oh, [E7+5]Shine [E7]on, [E7+5]shine on, [E7]harvest [A7]moon Up in the sky;
[D7]I ain't had no lovin' Since [G]April, [C]January, [G]June or July.
[E7+5]Snow [E7]time [E7+5]ain't no [E7]time to [A7]stay Outdoors and spoon;
So [D7]shine on, shine on, harvest [G]moon, For [D7]me and my [G]gal.
