the same way.... 
 
D 
She was morning and I was night time. 
                                    G 
I one day woke up to find her lyin' beside my bed. 
                     D 
I softly said, "Come take me." 
    D 
For I've been lonely, in need of someone 
                                                  G 
As though I'd done someone wrong somewhere, but I don't know where. 
                         D 
I don't know where, come lately 
G              A 
You are the sun, I am the moon, 
G/B              A7           D 
You are the words, I am the tune, play me. 
D 
Song, she sang to me, song she brang to me, 
                                                 G 
Words that rang in me, rhyme that sprang from me warmed the night. 
                   D 
And what was right became me. 
G              A 
You are the sun, I am the moon, 
G/B              A7           D 
You are the words, I am the tune, play me.

So it was that I came to travel, 
                                                  G 
Upon a road that was thorned and narrow, another place, 
                         D 
Another grace would save me. 
G              A 
You are the sun, I am the moon, 
G/B              A7           D     Dsus4 D 
You are the words, I am the tune, play me. 
 
G              A 
You are the sun, I am the moon, 
G/B              A7           D      D7   G  D Em D 
You are the words, I am the tune, .....play........ me.
