1. Strophe:
            
The last time 

              
ever she saw h

      
im,
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                  
shadow.
            
He passed on w

              
orried and war

             
ning,
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                  
shadow.
             
Lost in a ridd

              
le that saturd

    
ay night,
           
Far away on th

         
e other side.
              
He was caught 

             
in the middle 

              
of a desperate

              
 fight,
              
And she couldn

            
’t find how to

                       
 push through.


2. Strophe:

            
The trees that

              
 whisper in th

                 
e evening,
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                    
shadow.
            
Sing a song of

              
 sorrow and gr

               
ieving,
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                     
shadow.
             
All she saw wa

              
s a silhouette

            
 of gun,
             
Far away on th

                          
e other side.
              
He was shot si

             
x times by a m

               
an on the run,
              
And she couldn

            
’t find how to

                      
 push through.


Refrain:

         
    I stay, I 

             
pray, see you 

             
in heaven far 

   ( 
a-way.
         
    I stay, I 

             
pray, see you 

             
in heaven     

   (  
one day


3. Strophe:

                             

Four a.m. in the morning, 
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                    
shadow.
            
I watch vision

      
 forming,
             
Carried away b

              
y a moonlight 

                    
shadow.
             
Stars move slo

              
wly in the sil

            
very light,
             
Far away on th

                       
e other side.
              
Will you come 

             
to talk to me 

           
this night
                                                

But she couldn’t find to push through.


Refrain:

         
    I stay, I 

             
pray, see you 

             
in heaven far 

   ( 
a-way.
         
    I stay, I 

             
pray, see you 

             
in heaven     

   ( 
 one day.
