Moon Over The Rio Grande
G
I want to watch the moon rise

Gaug

Over the Rio Grande

C

Stand in contemplation

Cm

Hand in gentle hand

Em

Breathing in the beauty

          C                    Cm

Of the pink and purple land

G

High on the inspiration

          Bm          
(Bm-Bbm-Am) G
Of the Moon Over The Rio Grande

G

The endless desperation

Gdim

Of deadline after deadline

D

The constant agitation

          Cm                  G

Of the headlines of the play

G

Brings the inclination

     Gdim

To make a little free time

               D

And watch Nature's message

          Cm                 G

As she goes about her day

Chorus

So many conversations
Simply meaning
The failed communications
Fall upon the floor
There's something in the spirit
Of the language of the land
The eloquent precision
Nothing less, and nothing more

Chorus
BREAK
Chorus


G
High on the inspiration

          Bm

Of the moon...

G

High on the inspiration

          Em

Of the moon...

G

High on the inspiration

          Bm                         G

Of the Moon Over The Rio Grande
