Song: Swingin' On the Moon Tab
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
Are you tired of summer nights and noons?
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
Do you yawn when they speak sunny Spain?
F Dm7 G C C/B A
Could you live without ever seeing old Rangoon?
Gdim Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G C ||: C - Gm :||
Then come with me and let's go swingin' on the moon.
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
Have you had enough of London fog,
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
New York snow and Cal - i - forn - ia smog?
F Dm7 G C C/B A
Would you say "arriva derci" to Rome in June?
Gdim Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G C
Then fly with me and let's go swingin' on the moon.
Bridge 1:
Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G7 C
Let's have a honeymoon on the moon, honey,
C C/B Am7 Am7/G B7
Far from the noisy earth below;
E A9 E A9 E A9 B7
And if your mama asks, "Why the moon," honey,
B7 G7
Just tell her your feller has gone inter-stellar.
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
Grab your hat and we'll head off in the blue
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
In a lit - tle rock - et built for two;
F Dm7 G C C/B A
Baby, we're gonna blast off, and before we're through,
G C C/B Am7 Am7/G Fm Fdim Bb9
We'll leave the cares that we know on terra fir - ma below
C Cdim Dm7 G C
While we go singin' and swingin' on the moon.
Bridge 2:
Dm Dm+7 Dm7 G7 C
Hey, let's grab a holiday on the moon, honey,
C C/B Am7 Am7/G B7
Far from the hustle of the crowd;
E A9 E A9 E A9 B7
And if your folks ask about our house, honey,
B7 G7
Tell mater and pater we live in the crater.
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
We're really gonna enjoy a life of ease,
C C/B Bm7-5 Gdim A7
Livin' on moonlight cocktails and green cheese;
F Dm7 G C C/B A
Mister and Missus Space Commuter, if you please -
G C C/B Am7 Am7/G Fm Fdim Bb9
And in a few years we might produce our own sat - e - lite
C Cdim Dm7 G C
While we go singin' and swingin' on the moon.
Coda:
C Gm C - Gm C Gm C - Gm
Swingin' on the moon... moonlight cocktail...
C Gm C - Gm C Gm C - Gm
Moonlight becomes you... blue moon...
C Gm C - Gm C Gm C - Gm C Gm C - Gm
Moon over Miami... velvet moon... how high the moon...
C Gm C - Gm C Gm C - Gm
Don't let the moon get away... the moon was yellow...
C Cdim
We're singin', we're swingin',
C Cdim Dm7 C
We're singin' and a swingin' on the moon
