Shine On, Harvest Moon
Words & Music by Jack Norworth & Nora Bayes-Norworth, 1938
Recorded by Leon Redbone, 1977 (See Below)
Am E7 Am
The night was mighty dark so you could hardly see,
C Am E7
And the moon refused to shine;
Am E7 Am D Am7 G7
Couple sittin' underneath the willow tree; for love they pined.
Dm7 G7 Dm7 G7
The little maid was kinda 'fraid of darkness, so
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
She said, "I guess I'll go."
D Am7 D Am7
The boy began to sigh, looked up in the sky,
D Am7 G G7
And told the moon his little tale of woe.
Fdim A7 Fdim A7 D Am7 D
"Shine on, shine on, harvest moon up in the sky;
G Dm7 G Dm7 C F C G C C7
I ain't had no lovin' since January, February, June or Ju-ly.
Fdim A7 Fdim A7 D Am7 D
Snow time ain't no time to stay outdoors and spoon,
G Dm7 G Dm7 C F Dm7 C
So shine on, shine on, harvest moon, for me and my gal."
