Venus Kissed the Moon

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Venus Kissed the Moon - Christine Lavin ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Email: Tidedragon@yahoo.com Tuning: standard I don't even remeber if that is the title. But it's a pensive, pretty song, and one of the first I ever figured out, so here it is. Christine fingerpicks like a dream, mine is a gross estimation, and muddier than I've transcribed here. Intro: x2 C(b(Fm7) e|----------0----------0-----------0-------------1--------1-------1-------1--| B|--1-----------1----------1---------------1-1-------1--------1-------1------| G|-----0-----------0----------0----------------2-------2--------2-------2----| D|-------2-----------2----------2------3-2-3---------------------------------| A|--3-----------2----------0---------------3----------------3----------------| E|-------------------------------------------------1----------------1--------| Christine fingerpicks the entire song in her chords, so just go for it. The words are a little off from memory. The C and F pattern is four measures long, evey other chord is only one measure EXCEPT the Dm and G at the end of the bridge The lines at the end are sung with two voices C F Venus kissed the moon tonight way up in the sky C F She's been chasing him for centuries too bad he's so shy___ Em Am He's waxing, He's waning, Dm G You won't see Venus complaining C She'll steal a kiss whenever she can F F Not 'til twenty-thirtyone(?) will this happen again C F I see you in the taxi cab and touch your hands and face C F I say "I feel like a satelite, way too long in space___" Em Am You roll down the window Dm G to gain a clearer view C You're looking up at the heavens F F I'm looking up at you___ Em Am Twenty-thrityone you say Em Am That's an eternity, so far away, not to me Em Am Time and distance make no difference in these Dm G Celestial affairs____ Em Am Won't you hold me close tonight Em Am Your eyes are shining bright___ Dm Like the luminescent streetlight lights those G lovers way up there C F Venus kissed the moon tonight It's ok It was a leap year C F Then she kept right on traveling centrifical force, my dear___ Em Am He's waxing, He's waning, Dm G You won't see Venus complaining C She'll steal a kiss whenever she can F C This will happen again, this will happen again Venus kissed the moon F (Venus kissed the moon tongiht____) C This will happen again Venus kissed the moon F (Venus kissed the moon tongiht____) C This will happen again Venus kissed the moon F (Venus kissed the moon tongiht____) C This will happen again
