Tonight the moon is playing tricks again

Feeling sea sick again

And the whole world could just dissolve into a glass of water

I've been good 'cause I know you don't want me to

Do you really want me to be as blue as you

It's her daylight that gets me through

We've been here before

Last time you scratched at my door

The moon was naked and cold

I was like a 2 year old who just wanted more

If you wear that velvet dress

If you wear that velvet dress

Tonight the moon's drawn its cutains

It's a private show, no one has to know

I'm wanting

3rd guitar (with heavy delay):

*I've arranged this for an acoustic without a cutaway--I think Edge

plays this higher up on the fretboard, but you can play it using this

solo--I didn't want to alienate the acoustic people here

Sunlight, sunlight fills my room

It's sharp and it's clear

But nothing at all like the moon

 

use this as the basic solo for next verse:

It's okay, the struggle for things not to say

I never listened to you anyway

And I got my own hands to pray

But if you wear that velvet dress

If you wear that velvet dress

Tonight the moon is a mirrorball

Light flickers from across the hall

Who'll catch the star when it falls?
