Capo 4
[Am] [E] [G] [D] [F] [C] [E]
[Am]Now the hour has come [E]at last
[G]The soft and fading [D]light
[Am]Has crossed the west [E]horizon
[G]And has bidden us [D]goodnight
[F]And what a lovely [G]night it is
To [E]walk a moonlit [Am]field
To [F]see the softer [G]shades
That are by [E]starlight now revealed
[Am]So why is it that [E]now,
[G]When all is quiet and at [D]rest
[Am]When candles glow and all the [E]world
Is [G]at its very [D]best
The [F]ponies of [G]Equestria
[E]Should lock themselves [Am]away
To [F]shun the moon and wait [G]instead
For [E]Sister's sunny day?
[E]In umbra Luna est
[Am]Am I so wrong to wish [G]that they
[C]Would see things like I [F]do?
[G]And am I so wrong to [C]think
That [F]they might love me [A#]too?
Why [Am]shouldn't they adore [G]me?
Is it [C]not within my [F]right?
I'll [G]not be [C]overshadowed!
Mine is not [F]the lesser [A#]light!
I've [G]waited long enough [C]now
For them [A]all to come [Dm]around
And though the Sun [E]may plead and [Am]threaten,
[B]The Moon will stand her [B]ground
It [Em]comes to this at [C]last:
I will [Am]no longer yield the [B]sky
If they [C]cannot love
But [Am]one princess alone [B]
[Em]See, the [C]Moon is [Am]rising
[B]She has [C]come to claim the [Am]heavens for her [B]own
And [Em]all will know the [C]wonder
Of my [Am]dark and jeweled [B]sky
When all [C]the world is [Am]wrapped
In an [B]eternal [B]lullaby
So [Em]say goodnight at [C]this,
The final [Am]setting of the [B]sun
Tomorrow [C]dawns in [Am]darkness
The [B] [C]nighttime [B]has [Em]begun!
[Em] [C] [Em] [C] [Em]
