I pictured a rainbow
C G
You held in your hands
F G
I had flashes
F G
But you saw then plan
C G
I wondered out in the world for years
C G F
While you just stayed in your room
G F
I saw the crescent
G C
You saw the whole of the moon!
G F C
The whole of the moon!

C
You were there at the turnstiles
G
With the wind at your heels
C
You stretched for the stars
G
And you know how it feels to reach
F G F
Too high, too far, too soon
G C
You saw the whole of the moon!

G
I was grounded
C G
While you filled the skies
F G F
I was dumbfounded by truths
G
You cut through lies
C G C
I saw the rain-dirty valley
G
You saw Brigadoon
F G F
I saw the crescent
G C
You saw the whole of the moon!

I spoke about wings
G6
You just flew
F C Dm
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried

You just knew
C G
I sighed
C G
But you swooned!
F G F
I saw the crescent
G C
You saw the whole of the moon!
G F G
The whole of the moon!

C
With a torch in your pocket
G
And the wind at your heels
C
You climbed on the ladder
G
And you know how it feels to reach
F G F
Too high, too far, too soon
G C
You saw the whole of the moon!
G F
The whole of the moon!
G
Hey, yeah!

C
Unicorns and cannonballs
G
Palaces and piers
C
Trumpets, towers, and tenements
G
Wide oceans full of tears
F
Flag, rags, ferry boats
G
Scimitars and scarves
F
Every precious dream and vision
G
Underneath the stars
C
Yes, you climbed on the ladder
G
With the wind in your sails
C
You came like a comet
G
Blazing your trail
F G F
Too high, too far, too soon
G C G
You saw the whole of the moon!
