Cruel, Cruel Moon

guitar chords lyrics

Paul and Storm

Capo 4

E
Cruel, cruel moon
B
Please don�t come out tonight
B
�Cause when you do, my Emily Lou
E
And me are gonna have a fight

A
They say the full moon�s meant for lovers
E
But you�re gonna break my heart
B
�Cause when you shine
B
That baby of mine
B
Will turn into a werewolf
A E
And rip out my throat and kill me

E
Four weeks ago me and Emily Lou
B
We were on a Northern England tour
B
Late one night
B
Against advice
E
We went a� walkin� on the moors

Am
She thought she saw a doggy
E C#
Underneath the full moon�s light
F#
But when she tried to pet that doggy
B
It gave her a nasty bite

E
Didn�t think too much about it
B
�Till this morning when I read
B
There was some kind of monster out last night
E
And eighteen folks were dead

Am
My baby slept there next to me
E C#
With blood caked in her claws
F#
Tattered clothing, guts and entrails
B
Clenched between her jaws

E
Cruel, cruel moon
B
Please don�t come out tonight
B
�Cause when you do, my Emily Lou
E
And me are gonna have a fight

A
They say the full moon�s meant for lovers
E
But you�re gonna break my heart
B
�Cause when you shine
B
That baby of mine will
B
Turn on me and rip my lungs out
A E
And julienne my liver

(B A E)

E
Every time you think you know someone
B
That�s when they change again
B
So Mr. Moon, can you help me out
E
Of this doggone fix I�m in?

Am
I locked my baby in the basement
E C#
And reinforced the door
F#
But when she�s done lycanthropizing
B
She�s gonna settle up the score

E
My finger�s on the trigger
B
Of this gun full of silver bullets
E
But Mr. Moon, I love my Emily Lou
E
Too much to pull it

Am
My daylight�s runnin� out soon
E C#
And this door won�t hold for long
F#
One last chance now, Mr. Moon
B
Won�t you listen to my song?

E
Cruel, cruel moon
B
Please don�t come out tonight
B
�Cause when you do, my Emily Lou
E
And me are gonna have a fight

A
They say the full moon�s meant for lovers
E
But you�re gonna break my heart
B
�Cause when you shine
B
That baby of mine
B
Will painfully transform
B B
Just like that guy from An American Werewolf in London
B
Then she�ll tear my eyeballs from their sockets
A Am E
Then I won�t see my baby anymore
