[Intro]
Am G Am Em Dm F G Am
[Verse 1]
Am G
We left the others
Am Em
In the fading light
Dm F
Walked up that old road
G Am
On a warm summer night
Am G
You said let's go higher
Am Em
There's a good chance that soon
Dm F G Am
We'll get to see the rising moon
[Verse 2]
Am G
When we reached the quarry
Am Em
We could feel the breeze
Dm F
We stood there a moment
G Am
Searching the trees
Am G
Then suddenly, we saw it
Am G
That big red glow
Dm F
I took your hand
G Am
And you didn't let go
[Chorus]
Am G
Oh my poor heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
Yeah my poor heart jumped right out of my chest
Am G
And my poor heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
Yeah my poor heart jumped right out of my chest
[Verse 3]
Am G
Well the moon changed its colour
Am Em
As it rose in the sky
Dm F
And we changed each other
G Am
Under heaven's bright eye
Am G
I might live to a hundred
Am Em
I might die soon
Dm F G Am
But I'll never forget that rising moon
[Chorus]
Am G
Oh my poor heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
Yeah my poor heart jumped right out of my chest
Am G
And my poor heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
Yeah my poor heart jumped right out of my chest
[Bridge]
Dm
Now you've gone
Am
And left me staring at the rising moon
Dm
Oh, my heartbeats strong
E
Sometimes I wish it would stop
But it keeps pumpin on!
[Solo chords]
Dm Am Dm E
[Coda]
Am
My whole heart jumped out of my chest
N.C.
My whole heart jumped right out of my chest
Am G
My whole heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
My whole heart jumped right out of my chest
Am G
My whole heart jumped out of my chest
Dm Em F Am
My whole heart jumped right out of my chest
