Full Song
Verse 1
AD
Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
AE
With the stars up above in your eyes
AD
A fantabulous night to make romance
AE
‘Neath the cover of October skies
F#mD
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
AE
To the sound of the breezes that blow
AD
And I’m trying to please to the calling
AE
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
Chorus
AD
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
AE
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Verse 2
AD
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
AE
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?
AD
Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
AE
I can’t wait ’til the morning has come
F#mD
And I know now the time is just right
AE
And straight into my arms you will run
AD
And when you come, my heart will be waiting
AE
To make sure that you’re never a-lone
F#mDA
There and all, the wonders of love you will own
Chorus
AD
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
AE
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Bridge
DAE
Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
AE
I can’t wait ’til the morning has come
F#mD
‘Cause I know now the time is just right
AE
And straight into my arms you will run
AD
And when you come, my heart will be waiting
AE
To make sure that you’re never a-lone
F#mDA
There and all, the wonders of love you will own
Chorus
AD
And all the night’s magic seems to whisper and hush
AE
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Outro
AD
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
AE
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
A
One more moondance with you
D
In the moonlight
A
On a magic night
E
La, la, la, la, la in the moonlight
A
On a magic night
Practice tip: Work on the chord transitions from A to D and A to E smoothly, as they form the backbone of the song; use a metronome to lock in the swing rhythm before adding the vocals.
