It must have been (Cm(maj7))moon glow,
’way up in the (A9)blue.
It must have been (D7)moon glow
(G)that (Gdim)led me (Am7)straight to (G)you.
I still hear you (Cm(maj7))say ing,
“Dear one, hold me (A9)fast.”
And I start in (D7)pray ing,
(G)“Oh, (Gdim)Lord, please (Am7)let this (G)last.”
(G9)We
seemed to float right through the (E9)air,
(A7)heav en ly songs
seemed to come from (D9)ev
(Eb7)’ry (D7)where.
And now when there’s (Cm(maj7))moon glow
way up in the (A7)blue,
I al ways re (D7)mem ber
(G)that (Gdim)moon glow (Am7)gave me (G)you.
