[Verse 1]
[F]The[Fm][F][C][Am][A][D][G][C]
[Bdim]night wa[Am]s mighty dark
and you could hardly see
Cause the moon refused [D]to [E]shine
And [Am]there's a couple sittin'
near the willow tree
[D]Oh, for long, how they [G]hanged.
The [F]little maid,
she was kind of [C]afraid of the dark.
So she said, I think I'll [F]go.
The [D]boy began to [A]sigh,
[D]looked up at the [Am]sky,
And [D]told the moon his little tale of [G]woe,
[Abdim]woe
[G]Shi[A]ne, shine on home swe[D]et
[Am]Up in th[D]e sky
[G]I a[Baug]in't ha[G]d me no lovin' since Janua[C]ry,
[F]February, [C]June and July
It's a [A]slow time, ain't no time
to [D]stay outdoors and snooze
So [G]shine on, shine on all this [C]moon
for [F]me and my [C]gal[G]
[Am]But you know things didn't work out
for the boy and his sweetheart
She left him for somebody else
[E]And the boy went to the big [Am]city
Started drowning his
troubles in the whiskey
Oh [D]Lord, and the big city went [G]mad [Baug]St. Louis,[G]
[Cm]mama[G][Baug]
[Cm]Where's all your diamond [D]ring[G]s?
Oh, you drags men around
[Dm]just[G] like they was on th[Baug]e street[Cm]
Well, if it weren't for paint and [G]powder
[Cm]an d all that store -bought he[G]ll[D][G]
Good Lord, these St. [Dm]Louis women,
[G]they would not be [Baug]no wham,[Cm]
[D]wham, [G]wham,
I got the [C]St. [Am]Louie blues,
[C]I'm just as [Am]blue as I can [C]be[Am][C]
Yeah, that wo[F]man's got a heart
like a rock cast into the [C]sea[G][C]
[F]Oh, [G]why did my sweetheart go
[F]so far away from me?[C][G][C]
[G]I c[Bm]an't [Am]see why a boy should sigh
when by his side is the girl he loves [D]so [E]true.
[Am]All he has to [E]say [Am]is,
won't you be my bride?
[D]For now his sweetheart loves him [G]too.
[F]Why should I be tellin' you the [C]secret
When I'm sure that [D]you [C]can [F]guess?
The [D]harvest moon will [Am]smile,
shine [D]on all the while
[Am]The [D]sweetheart yes,
she answers [G]yes, [Ab]yes
[A]Shining on, shining on
all those [D]moon[Am]s up in the [D]sky.
[G]I ain't had me no lovin' since Janua[C]ry,
[A]Feb[F]ruary, Jan[D]uar[C]y.
But [A]it's no good time, ain't no time
to [D]stay outdoors at [Am]this [D]point
So [G]shine on, shine on,
shine on harvest [C]moon
for [F]me and my [C]gal you
