1st Verse: 
 
G 
The moon is off my shoulder, 
    C 
the sun is in my eyes. 
G 
Almost to my hometown, 
     C 
it's just another mile 
Am          G             Am           G    
Memories surround me of an old familier time. 
Am              G          Am                    Am7/D 
Life was simple then, when your love was mine. 

              G   Am       Am7/D 
There's a cool wind on the desert tonight. 
      G               C           Am              Am7/D 
I can almost see your golden hair flying in the moonlight. 
G Bm          C 
Ooh, it was a restless kind of free, 
             Am         Am7/D       G 
when it was, you and forever and me.  
 
 
2nd Verse 
I pulled off the highway on your side of town 
Make the turn past the railroad tracks as the sun goes down. 
I remember how you would wait by the front porch light. 
You were always ready to take a midnight ride. 
 
Bridge: 
Em                         A           Am 
Sometimes love is lost and never found. 
           G             C             Am11/D 
But I just had to see if you're still around. 
 
CHORUS
