Moondance
Words & Music by Van MorrisonRecorded by Van Morrison, 196
Intro: ||: Am - G | F - G :||
Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
Well, it's a mar-vel-ous night for a moon-dance
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
With the stars up a-bove in your eyes
Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
A fan-tab-u-lous night to make ro-mance
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
'Neath the cov-er of Oc-to-ber skies
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
To the sound of the bree-zes that blow
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
And I'm try-ing to please to the calling
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
F - F9 - F Am Dm Am Dm Am
And all the night's magic seems to whis-per and hush
F - F9 - F Am F E7
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Am G F G Am G F G
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love
Am G F G Am G F E7
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
Well, I wan - na make love to you to - night
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
I can't wait 'til the morn-ing has come
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
And I know that the time is just right
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
And straight in-to my arms you will run
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
And when you come my heart will be wait-ing
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
To make sure that you're nev-er a-lone
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
G Am A9 Am G G9 G Am G
There and then I will make you my own
F - F9 - F Am Dm Am Dm Am
And every time I touch you, you just trem-ble in-side
F - F9 - F Am F E7
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide
Am G F G Am G F G
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love
Am G F G Am G F E7
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?
When you start getting comfortable with this, there's a repeating Am-G figure that sounds gorgeous here. If you listen to the recording, you'll know what I mean. It plays more like Am-A9-Am-G-G9-G than just Am-G, and once you get the hang of it, it makes the song.
