[Verse 1]

           
The last that 

         
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


[Verse 2]

           
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 a 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



[Bridge]

 
  I stay I pra

y
            
See you in hea

    
ven far away

  I stay I pra

y
            
See you in hea

    
ven one day


[Verse 3]

           
Four am in the

 
 morning
             
Carried away b

             
y a moonlight 


shadow
           
I watched your

        
 vision formin

g
             
Carried away b

             
y a moonlight 


shadow
             
Star was light

      
 in a silvery 

night
          
Far away on th

  
e other side
             
Will you come 

           
to talk to me 

this night
           
But she couldn

             
't find how to

[Ending]

             
Caught in the 

             
middle of a hu

                            
ndred and five
             
The night was 

              
heavy and the 


air was alive
           
But she couldn

             
't find how to

      
 push through

y a moonlight 


shadow
            
              

          
Far away on th
