[Verse 1]
We are the lucky ones
We shine like a thousand suns
When all of the color runs together

I’ll keep you company
In one glorious harmony
Waltzing with destiny forever

Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Turning me into the light

[Verse 2]
Time dancers whirling past
I gaze through the looking glass
And feel just beyond my grasp is heaven

Sacred geometry
Where movement is poetry
Visions of you and me forever

Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Turning me into the light

[Instrumental]


Dance me into the night
Underneath the moon shining so bright
Let the dark waltz begin
Oh let me wheel – let me spin
Let it take me again
Turning me into the light

Standard tuning

If I could take this moment forever
Turn the pages of my mind
To another place and time
We would never say goodbye

Dsus4 D Dsus2 D x2

If I could find the words I would speak them
Then I wouldn’t be tongue-tied
When I looked into your eyes
We would never say goodbye

Dsus4 D Dsus2 D x2

If I could stop the moon ever rising
Day would not become the night
Wouldn’t feel this cold inside
And we’d never say goodbye

Dsus4 D Dsus2 D x2

I wish that our dreams were frozen
Then our hearts would not be broken
When we let each other go…

[Solo: play like the normal verses] x1




Dsus4 D Dsus2 D x1

If I could steal this moment forever
Paint a picture-perfect smile
So our story stayed alive
We would never say goodbye

[Verse 1]

Did you see the shiny moon?
Turned into a black bal-loon
Just as you walked away from me

[Verse 2]

Did you see how hard I’ve tried?
Not to show the pain in side
Just as you walked away from me

Who painted the moon black?
Just when you passed your love back
Who painted the moon black?
Oh won’t you, won’t you come back?

[Instrumental]

[/] [/] [/]

[Verse 3]

It must have been the darkest night
Not even a star in sight
Just as you walked away from me, now

Who painted the moon black?
Just when you passed your love back
Who painted the moon black?
Oh won’t you, won’t you come back?

Who painted the moon black?
Just when you passed your love back
Who painted the moon black?
Oh won’t you, won’t you come back?
Who painted the moon?

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]

Did you see the shiny moon?
Turned into a black bal-loon
Just as you walked away from me

Who painted the moon black?
Just when you passed your love back
Who painted the moon black?
Oh won’t you, won’t you come back?

Who painted the moon black?
Just when you passed your love back
Who painted the moon black?
Oh won’t you, won’t you come back?
Who painted the moon?

Hayley Westenra – Pokarekare Ana
-from the 2004 album “Pure”

[Intro – G]

Pokarekare ana
Nga wai o waiapu
Whiti atu koe hine
Marino ana E

E hine E
Hoki maira
Kamate au
i te aroha e

Tuhituhi taku rita
Tuku atu taku ringi
Kia kiti to iwi
Raru raru ana e

E hine E
Hoki maira
Kamate au
i te aroha e

[—]
Note: at the end of the 2nd chorus, rather than finishing on the G,
there’s actually a somewhat gratuitous key change into E-flat,
which I personally wouldn’t bother with.
Still, if you want to play along to the CD, here it is (although I’ve
yet to work out the chords in the instrumental – they may be
the equivalent to the verse, i.E. Eb, Ab, Bb, Eb).

E hine E
Hoki maira
Kamate au
i te aroha e

[Instrumental]

E hine E
Hoki maira
Kamate au
i te aroha e

(Verse 1)
Cold nights of loneliness
Dark nights of emptiness
I stood there waiting
But the summer came too late

(Verse 2)
Seasons unfold
Stories lie untold
And still my heart is waiting
Summer came too late
