Shine on Harvest Moon

by Jack Norworth & Nora Bayes

Transcribed by Lawrence G.

Amin  E7

      Amin                E7                          Amin        E7        Amin     F7        E     E7

The night it was so dark that you could hardly see,  for the moon refused to shine.

Amin             E7                   Amin         E7    D7         G7

Couple sittin’ underneath the willow tree, for love they pine.

G7                                                               C         C/G               C

Little may was kinda scared of darkness so she said, “I guess I’ll go.”

D7                 G7  D7                    G7    A7                  D7               G

Boy began to cry, looked up to the sky, told the sky his little tale of woe.

      A7                                   D7

So shine on, shine on harvest moon, up in the sky

G7                                    C           F             C           C7

I ain’t had no lovin’ since January, February, June or July.

A7                                 D7               

No time ain’t no time to stay, outdoors and swoon

     G7                                   C                 C7            C

so shine on, shine on harvest moon, for me and my gal.
