Capo 1

D G Em A

Didn’t think you would go

With the moon shining low

Em A

On a night like tonight with me

But I asked you to be

Something you couldn’t be

You were free

D G Em A

(Interlude) (8 beats each)

There’s a feeling so strong

That it has to be wrong

Em A

And I knew when it came to me

But I asked you to be

Something you couldn’t be

You were free

G D Em A

Now, will we really be happier

G D Em A

And we probably never could be then

D G Em A

(Interlude) (8 beats each)

You’re a beautiful sight

In the warm purple night

Like a dream I had failed to see

But I asked us to be

Something we couldn’t be

We were free
