I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
     
 
                                         C
My mother and my father were in love for 50 years

            D7
So when dad died we wondered why my mother shed no tears

G
We asked her once about it but she wouldn't tell us why

                   G7                     C
Instead she'd walk outside each night and smile up at the sky

                     G                            D7
Then just before she left us she called us to her side

                                                      G    C
She told us what my father said to her just before he died


    G               G7               C
I remember when you said you'd never leave me

              D7                                  G   D7
Through these golden years I've kept the same vow too

    G             G7                 C
But now that I am goin' please don't leave me 

          G               D7                               G   C G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you 
 
 
        D7                             G      C         G
You can look up every night and you'll see me light the light

           A7                               D7
Where I'll watch for you to join me someday soon

         G                                 C              A7
We'll go lookin' through the stars for the heaven that is ours

      G                  D7                             G    C  G
And I know we'll find it soon somewhere just beyond the moon
  

C         G               D7                               G   C  G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
      
         
          D7                           G         C     G
I'll just sit there by a star and I'll watch you from afar

       A7                                D7
Till I see you walking toward me someday soon

       G                         C                 A7
Then together hand in hand we'll find our promised land

          G           D7                              G    C
And we'll settle down forever darlin' just beyond the moon

 
          G               D7                               G   C  G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
