Oh, ^DI'm bein' followed by a ^A7moon^Dshadow, ^Gmoon shadow, ^A7moonshadow--- ^DLeapin and hoppin' on a ^A7moon^Dshadow, ^Gmoonshadow, ^A7moon^Dshadow---

Verse 1:

^GAnd if I e^Dver lose ^Gmy ha^Dnds, ^Glose my ^Dplough, lose ^Emmy l^A7and, G D G D Em A7 D F#m Bm Em A D Oh if I ever lose my hands, Oh if------------- I won't have to work no more.

Verse 2 (use same chords as Verse 1 for all verses): And if I ever lose my eyes, if my colours all run dry, Yes if I ever lose my eyes, Oh if------------- I won't have to cry no more. Refain Verse 3: And if I ever lose my legs, I won't moan, and I won't beg, Yes if I ever lose my legs, Oh if------------- I won't have to walk no more. Verse 4: And if I ever lose my mouth, all my teeth, north and south, Yes if I ever lose my mouth, Oh if------------- I won't have to talk... Verse 5:

^E7Did it take long to fi^And me? ^EI asked the faithful ^Alight. ^EDid it take long to fi^And me? ^E7And are you gonna sta^Ay the night?

Refrain

^Gmoonshadow, ^A7moon^Dshadow, ^Gmoonshadow, ^A7moon^Dshadow. Oh, by the way, the chords aren't played in basic position. For example use a D by barring the fifth fret and using the remaining fingers in an "A" formation. Try fooling around with alternate chord shapes at different parts of the neck and throwing in some hammers-on to more closely resemble the recording.
