Moonlighting Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]He sees her at the same time every night
At the [G]Mexican discotheque
She gives him French kisses
He [C]gives her French cigarettes

[Verse 2]
They sit [C]at the same table
every time
The lights are low but their eyes shine
Just [G]digging the music from those
sweet soul bands
She keeps him outta fights
holds on to his hand

[Verse 3]
He [F]whispers slowly: "To
[G]night's the night"
[C]Months of planning so
it's [F]gotta be right
Under the table her bag is
[G]bursting at the seams
[C]She made sure to bring
[F]everything[C]
Moonlighting They're [F]leaving

[Verse 4]
[C]
[G]everything
Moonlighting
They're losing all their [C]friends
Moonlighting
It's the only way
It's [G]frightening
But it means they'll stay
To[F]gether
They're gonna make it [C]together[G]

[Interlude 1]
[G][C]

[Verse 5]
His [C]blue Morris van is parked in an alley
Just by Montague [G]Street
His friend Eddie he did the re- spray
So he couldn't [C]drive it all last week

[Verse 6]
And [C]it cost most of the money
that he had saved up
To pay Eddie's receipt
[G]But he figures it's worth it
'cause the disguise is a must
When they go [C]missing they're
gonna look for the van first

[Verse 7]
She [F]whispers slowly: "It'll be alright
[G]I too[C]k some cash from my
build[F]ing society
And my monthly cheque came in just [G]right"
If [C]only they knew they were
[F]giving [C]it away
Moonlighting They're [F]leaving

[Verse 8]
[C]
[G]everything
Moonlighting
They're losing all their [C]friends
Moonlighting
It's the only way
It's [G]frightening
But it means they'll stay
To[F]gether
They're gonna make it [C]to gether
[G][A]

[Verse 9]
[D]9:15 Monday morning
at the printing works
The boss notices someone's
not clocked [A]in
And the water department of
the council offices has a message
[D]That Mrs. Park's daughter
is missing

[Verse 10]
Meanwhile [D]the Carlisle turn- off
of the M6 Motorway
Drinking cold black coffee
eating hot cupcakes
[A]She stares at him with
his beard unshaved
Wonders at his powers of staying awake

[Verse 11]
He [G]whispers slowly "You did just [A]fine"
They [D]shared the driving all
[G]through the night
She laughs "My mother
will have lost her [A]mind
We're only [D]ten miles to Gretna,
they're three [G]hundred [D]behind"

[Verse 12]
Moonlighting They're [D]leaving
[A]everything
Moonlighting
They're losing all their [D]friends
Moonlighting
It's the only way
It's [A]frightening
But it means they'll stay
To[G]gether
They're gonna make it [D]to
gether
[A]

[Verse 13]
[D]
Moonlighting
They're leaving [A]everything
Moonlighting
They're losing all their [D]friends
Moonlighting
It's the only way
It's fright[A]ening
But it means they'll stay
Together
They're gonna make it together
