Intro:    Ebar Dbar Cbar E G A


 Hey, I see the moon.              E G A E G A

 Look over there its coming up soon. 

 Reflected light is shining bright.    E G

 It shines day or night.            A  B

The moon is a satellite.            E A -E G A

 

I watch the moon as it rises an hour later each day.

 Moving up on horizon, What causes that delay?

 Moving up I wonder why. An hour later it takes its flight.

 The moon is a satellite.


 Chorus

 Gibbous some o dat moonshine to light the night. (A G A G-D)

 Wake up the wild life tonight with a satellite.      (A B C D)


 I saw the moon change its shape each & every day. 

 Getting larger it would wax, getting smaller it would wane.

 

The moon is new and then a crescent. It's half in 7 days.

 The gibbous moon turns into full so bright.


 Bridge

 The Earth moves the moon moves          (Em7 G D A )x3

 these are the reasons why                       

 27 1/4 days the moon revolves on by.

 The Earth spins it rotates 24 hours a day

 The revolving moon lags behind and

 the Earth slips away.                                Em7 G A- B

 solo


 repeat chorus 

 

 Hey I see the moon.                        Em7 Dbar Cbar

 Look over there.  It’s going down. It’s going down.
