Verso 1: 
G 
Before there ever was a you and me  

The endless void of a dark black sea  
D			   C			G 
And a giant oyster, the mother of all things  
	   D 
And the oyster made a pearl  
	  C			  G 
And the pearl became the world  
	  D 
And the world began to turn  
	  C		 G 
And the sun began to burn  
		Am 
Then one day I met you and I fell in love  
	  C					  D 
And you broke my tender heart and so here we are  


			   C 
But there was always the moon  
	  D          C 
There was always the moon  
	  D          C 
There was always the moon  
	  D          G 
There was always the moon  

Verso 2: 
G 
Before there ever was a you and me  

The slender branch of a gentle tree  
    D			   C			  G	 
And a big red fruit that hung low to the ground  
	 D	 
And you picked it out of spite  
  C			G 
And you took a careless bite  
	  D 
And the world was not the same  
	C		     G 
And we all know who to blame  
		 Am 
So now when you think of me do you think of when  
   C						D 
There was still a chance but it’s over so here we are  

 
			   C 
But there was always the moon  
	  D          C 
There was always the moon  
	  D          C 
There was always the moon  
	  D          G 
There was always the moon  

Verso 3: 
G 
Remember when there was a you and me?  

When there was such a thing as gravity?  
         D			 C		    G 
And the tides came in and the tides went out again  
	 D		 
But the water got too high  
	 C		  G 
And the sun began to die  
	D			 
And I tried to make you stay  
  C			G 
But the world pulled you away  
		    Am 
And now there are darker longer colder nights  
         C					   D 
And the sun has gone for good and so here we are  


			   C 
But there is always the moon  
	  D          C 
There is always the moon  
	  D          C 
There is always the moon  
	  D          G 
There is always the moon
