C F C G C
CWhen the moon is up and shining
On the fFields a long time bCright
Where the crops    Gone time Cgrew
There's a bClack and gold horizon
Through the Ftrees in the purple moonClight
Welcome to    Gwhat you kCnew
There's a pFlace inside the shadows where the sCtillness
Covers up   Ama night so blGue
And it tFraps the lonely whirlwind there and Amhides it
From vGiew
In the iCdle some grow restless
And iFmagine something more riCght
Sometimes don't   Gthink it Cthrough
So they sCaddle up the ponies 
And they rFide off into the niCght
One time more,   Gsometimes bClue
Sometimes tFhen the only colors they can drCeam of
Double back   Amand catch a Gfew
Of the cFrazy moonlight dragons they've been cAmhasing
Through the Ghills
 C   F    C   G   C(x2)
F C Am G F Am G
Now the Cmist is growing thicker
And it's gFetting harder to pClay
Sometimes now    Gmostly tCrue
So they gCather 'round the fire 
And they Flie the time aCway
Sometimes blue,   Gsometimes Cblue
There's a pFlace inside the shadows where the sCtillness
Covers up   Ama night so Gblue
And it tFraps the lonely whirlwind there and hiAmdes it
From vGiew
 C   F   C   G   C(x2)

Sometimes Blue

C F C G C

When the moon is up and shining

F C

On the fields a long time bright

G C

Where the crops one time grew

There's a black and gold horizon

F C

Through the trees in the purple moonlight

G C

Welcome to what you knew

F C

There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness

Am G

Covers up a night so blue

F Am

And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it

From view

In the idle some grow restless

F C

And imagine something more right

G C

Sometimes don't think it through

So they saddle up the ponies

F C

And they ride off into the night

G C

One time more, sometimes blue

F C

Sometimes then the only colors they can dream of

Am G

Double back and catch a few

F Am

Of the crazy moonlight dragons they've been chasing

Through the hills

C F C G C

(x2)

F C Am G F Am G

Now the mist is growing thicker

F C

And it's getting harder to play

G C

Sometimes now mostly true

So they gather 'round the fire

F C

And they lie the time away

G C

Sometimes blue, sometimes blue

F C

There's a place inside the shadows where the stillness

Am G

Covers up a night so blue

F Am

And it traps the lonely whirlwind there and hides it

From view

C F C G C
