Halo

	  		 

Intro- 

C 
I met an old man, He said: 
C 
"Son, I don't know You 
     F 
But love is a three card trick 
 F 
Watch and I'll show You 
    Am 
How You turn Your head 
         Am 
When She walks in the room 
         F 
'Cos You can't see the stars 
         F 
For the halo around the moon. 

          C 
He said, "Don't try to hide it 
         C 
And don't look surprised 
       F 
And no Son, don't You lie to Me 
      F 
It's there in Your eyes 
         Am 
You're a ship on Her rocks 
      Am 
In a storm and You're doomed 
         F 
'Cos You can't see the stars 
        F 
For the halo around the moon 

 C                     C 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
 G                     G 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
       Am                        Am 
You're kidding Yourself, if You think You're immune 
      F 
Just can't see the stars- 
        F 
For the halo around the moon 

       C 
If the ocean is crying 
     C 
You don't dry Her tears 
     F 
If a mermaid is singing - 
    F 
You cover Your ears 
           Am 
Or they'll take You and they'll drown You 
         Am 
In Their salty perfume 
         F 
When You can't see the stars 
         F 
For the halo around the moon." 

 C                     C 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
 G                     G 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
       Am                       Am 
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune 
      F 
Just can't see the stars - 
        F 
For the halo around the moon

   C 
I looked at that old man 
      C 
'n' I saw that He spoke 
            F 
Through the fog of the whisky 
     F 
All mirrors and smoke 
          Am 
Like some poet who whined 
         Am 
About a flower in bloom 
          F 
With some tired old line 
         F 
About a halo and a moon 

            C 
I said: "I know love and Her traps 
         C 
And You thought 
       F 
That a free man like Me 
        F 
Would fall in and get caught? 
         Am 
Well You must be the dumbest 
    Am 
Old man in the world!" 
      | F / / / | 
And I left him right there 
           / 
To go 'n' talk to a girl..... 

 C                     C 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
 G                     G 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
       Am                       Am 
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune 
      F 
Just can't see the stars - 
        F 
For the halo around the moon 

 C                     C 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
 G                     C 
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon 
       Am                       Am 
You're kidding Yourself if You think You're immune 
      F 
Just can't see the stars - 
        F 
For the halo around the moon
