[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[C]When I was young I spoke like a [F]child,
and I saw with a [Dm]child's eyes
[G]And [Am]an open [G]door was t[C]o a girl like the
stars are to the sky
It's funny how the world lives up to
[F]all your expectations
With adven[E]tures for the stout of heart,
and the lure of the [Am]open spaces

[Verse 2]
There's 2 lanes running [G]down this road,
[Am]whichever [G]side you're on
Accounts for where you want to go, or what
[C]you're running from
Back [G]when dark[C]ness [F]overtook me
[Am]on a blind[Dm] man's curve

[Verse 3]
[G]I relied [C]upon the moon, I re
[F]lied upon [Dm]the moon
I [G]re lied upon the [Csus4]moon
[C]and Saint Christopher[Eb][Gm][C]
[Eb]Now I've paid [G]my d[Gm]ues [C]cuz I have owed them,
but I've paid a price sometimes
For being such a stubborn woman
in such stubborn [F]times

[Verse 4]
[F]Now I've paid my [Dm]dues cuz I have owed them, but
I've paid a price sometimes
[G]For being such a stubborn [Am]woman in
such stub[G]born times
Now I have [C]run from the arms of
lovers, I've run from the eyes of [F]friends
I have run [E]from the hands of kindness,
I've run just [Am]because I can

[Verse 5]
[G]But now I'm [Am]grown and I [G]speak [C]like a
woman and I see with a woman's [F]eyes
And [Dm]an open door is to me now li[G]ke
[C]the saddest of good[F]byes
[Dm]It's too late for turning back, I [G]pray for
the [C]heart and [Csus4]the nerve
[C]

[Verse 6]
[C]And [F]I r[Dm]ely u[G]pon [C]the moon,
I [F]rely upon [Dm]the moon
I [Gsus4]rely upon[G] the moon[Csus4][C]
and [F]Saint Christopher

[Verse 7]
[Dm]I re[G]ly upo[C]n the moon, I
[F]rely upon [Dm]the moon
I [Gsus4]rely upon[G] the moon and Saint Christopher
