C
I met an old man, He said:
C
"Son, I don't know You
F
But love is a three card trick
F
Watch and I'll show You
Am
How You turn Your head
Am
When She walks in the room
F
'Cos You can't see the stars
F
For the halo around the moon.
C
He said, "Don't try to hide it
C
And don't look surprised
F
And no Son, don't You lie to Me
F
It's there in Your eyes
Am
You're a ship on Her rocks
Am
In a storm and You're doomed
F
'Cos You can't see the stars
F
For the halo around the moon
C C
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
G G
Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon
Am Am
You're kidding Yourself, if You think You're immune
F
Just can't see the stars-
F
For the halo around the moon
C
If the ocean is crying
C
You don't dry Her tears
F
If a mermaid is singing -
F
You cover Your ears
Am
Or they'll take You and they'll drown You
Am
In Their salty perfume
F
When You can't see the stars
F
For the halo around the moon."

Halo around the moon, Halo around the moon

C
I looked at that old man
C
'n' I saw that He spoke
F
Through the fog of the whisky
F
All mirrors and smoke
Am
Like some poet who whined
Am
About a flower in bloom
F
With some tired old line
F
About a halo and a moon
C
I said: "I know love and Her traps
C
And You thought
F
That a free man like Me
F
Would fall in and get caught?
Am
Well You must be the dumbest
Am
Old man in the world!"

And I left him right there

To go 'n' talk to a girl.....
