My mother and my father were in love for 50 years
D7
So when dad died we wondered why my mother shed no tears
G
We asked her once about it but she wouldn't tell us why
G7 C
Instead she'd walk outside each night and smile up at the sky
G D7
Then just before she left us she called us to her side
G C
She told us what my father said to her just before he died
G G7 C
I remember when you said you'd never leave me
D7 G D7
Through these golden years I've kept the same vow too
G G7 C
But now that I am goin' please don't leave me
G D7 G C G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
D7 G C G
You can look up every night and you'll see me light the light
A7 D7
Where I'll watch for you to join me someday soon
G C A7
We'll go lookin' through the stars for the heaven that is ours
G D7 G C G
And I know we'll find it soon somewhere just beyond the moon
C G D7 G C G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
D7 G C G
I'll just sit there by a star and I'll watch you from afar
A7 D7
Till I see you walking toward me someday soon
G C A7
Then together hand in hand we'll find our promised land
G D7 G C
And we'll settle down forever darlin' just beyond the moon
G D7 G C G
I'll walk just beyond the moon then I'll stop and wait for you
