G7
Let's swim to the moon
Uh huh
Let's climb thru the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the city
sleeps to hide
D7
Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
G7
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive

A7
Let's swim to the moon
Uh huh
Let's climb thru the tide
Surrender to the waiting worlds that
lap against our side
E7
Nothin' left open
And no time to decide
        A7
We've stepped into a river
On our moonlight drive

A7          D      A7 D
Let's swim to the moon
A7             D      A7  D
Let's climb thru the tide
A7           D       A7
You reach a hand to hold me
D    A7       D       A7  D
But I  can't be your guide
E7
Easy to love you as I watch you glide
A7         D         A7
Falling through wet forests
D     A7 D           A7
On our   moonlight drive
Moonlight drive

C'mon, baby, gonna take a little ride
Down, down by the ocean side
Gonna get real close
Get real tight
Baby gonna drown tonight
Goin' down, down, down
