Some notes on playing below

[D][Dsus4]Int [D][Dsus4]ro
[D][Dsus4][G][D][A/E]

[D][A]


[D][A]Mus [A7]ic
is playing in the darkness
[Bm]and a [G]lantern goes [Gm]swinging by
[D]Shadows [A]flickering, [Asus4]my heart's[A] jittering
[G] [D]Just [A/E]you [D] [A]Dand I
[G]Not tonight, come tomorrow
[D]When everything's[D7] sunny and bright
[G] No no no, come tomorrow 'cause
[E]then we'll be [A]waiting for the moonlight

[G]We'll go [D] walking [F7]in the [E]moonlight
[C][G]Walking in [Bb] the [A] [A7]moonlight

[D]Laughter [A]ringing in [A7]the darkness
[Bm]People [G]drinking for [Gm]days gone by
[D]Time don't mean a thing
[A]When [Asus4]you're by [A]my side
[G] [D]Please [A/E]stay [D] a [A]while

[F#] You know I never could [Bm] forsee the future years
[F#] You know I never could see
[Bm]Where life [A]was leading me
[D] But will [A]we be [F#]together forever?
[Bm]What will be my love?
[E]Can't you [A]see that I just [A7] don't know?

Solo
[Verse chords]

No no, not tonight, not tomorrow
Everything's gonna be alright sunny and bright
Wait and see if tomorrow we'll be
as happy as we're feeling tonight
We'll go walking in the moonlight we'll be happy
Walking in the moonlight

I can hear the music in the darkness
Floating softly to where we lie
No more questions now
Let's enjoy tonight
[G][D]Just [A/E]you [D] [A]Dand I
[G]Just [D] [A]you [D]and I

D Dsus4 D Dsus4 play around with these until the end
Just you and I
Can't you see that we've gotta be together
Be together just you and I just you and I
No more questions just you and I

Notes:

[G]For the last line of the [D]verse, where the chord [A/E]progression goes like this:
[D] , I like to do a little fast picking on strings 4 6 low E to D, as the chord
progression sounds kind of awkward
What I do is:
e| 2 |
B| 3 |
G| 2 |
D| 0 0 2 0 |
A| 2 0 0 |
E| 3 2 |

Of course, these can be strummed, and then it would go [320xxx] [200xxx] [x02xxx] [xx0232]

Another thing, I add the Asus4 to the third line of the verse, just for added color, but
it can easily be skipped
