[Intro]
F G x4
[Verse]
C G C F
When a bumper is filled, it is vexing, no doubt,
C F C G
To find when you rise that the wine has run out;
C G C F
And sure it's an equally unpleasant thing
C F G C
To be asked for a song when you've naught left to sing.
C G (G7)
I could sing something old, if an old one would do,
C F G
But the world it is craving to have something new.
C G C F
But what to select for the words or the tune?
C F G C
I, in fact, know no more than the Man in the Moon.
[Chorus]
C G
The Man in the Moon a new light on us throws,
C F G
He's a man we all talk of but nobody knows.
Am G C F
And though a high subject, I'm getting in tune,
C F G F G
I'll just sing a song for the Man in the Moon.
[Verse]
C G C F
Tis said that some people are moonstruck, we find,
C F C G
But the Man in the Moon must be out of his mind.
C G C F
But it can't be for love for he's quite on his own,
C F G C
No ladies to meet him by moonlight alone.
C G (G7)
It can't be ambition, for rivals he's none,
C F G
At least he is only eclipsed by the sun,
Am G C F
But when drinking, I say, he is seldom surpassed,
C F G C
For he always looks best when he's seen through a glass.
[Chorus]
C G
The Man in the Moon a new light on us throws,
C F G
He's a man we all talk of but nobody knows.
Am G C F
And though a high subject, I'm getting in tune,
C F G C
I'll just sing a song for the Man in the Moon.
[Instrumental verse and chorus]

C F G C
[Verse]
C G C F
The Man in the Moon he must lead a queer life,
C F C G
With no one around him, not even a wife,
C G C F
No friends to console him, no children to kiss,
C F G C
No chance of his joining a party like this.
C G (G7)
But he's used to the high life, all circles agree,
C F G
That none move in such a high circle as he,
Am G C F
And though nobles go up in their royal balloon,
C F G C
They're not introduced to the Man in the Moon.
[Chorus]
C G
The Man in the Moon a new light on us throws,
C F G
He's a man we all talk of but nobody knows.
Am G C F
And though a high subject, I'm getting in tune,
C F G C
I'll just sing a song for the Man in the Moon.
[Chorus]
N.C.
The Man in the Moon a new light on us throws,
He's a man we all talk of but nobody knows.
And though a high subject, I'm getting in tune,
I'll just sing a song for the Man in the Moon.
