[Verse 1]
C     Cadd9          Am   A4
There's a place on a blank stretch of road where
F                         G
Nobody travels and nobody goes and the
C   Cadd9          Am   A4
Deskman says these days 'round here
      F                                         G
Where two young folks could probably up and disappear into
F                         C
Rustlin' sheets, a sleepy corner room
Am         G       F
  Into the musty smell
   C   Cadd9               Am    A4
Of wilted flowers and lazy afternoon hours
       F      G      C Cadd9 Am A4 F G
At the Moonlight Motel


[Verse 2]
        C      Cadd9             Am    A4
Now the pool's filled with empty, eight foot deep
Continúa después del anuncio
    F                                               G
Got dandelions growin' up through the cracks in the concrete
C    Cadd9            Am  A4
Chain-link fence half-rusted away
       F                                        G
Got a sign, says, "Children, be careful how you play"
F                           C
Your lipstick taste and your whispered secret
 Am       G          F
I promised I'd never tell
  C   Cadd9                Am    A4
A half-drunk beer and your breath in my ear
       F      G      C Cadd9 Am A4 F G
At the Moonlight Motel

[Chorus]
          F                       C
Well then, it's bills and kids and kids and bills
       Am       G      F
And the ringing of the bell
           C    Cadd9               Am   A4
Across the valley floor through the dusty screen door
       F      G      C Cadd9 Am A4 F G
Of the Moonlight Motel

[Verse 3]
C   Cadd9                  Am  A4
Last night I dreamed of you, my lover
        F                                            G
And the wind blew through the window and blew off the covers
      C    Cadd9            Am     A4
Of my lonely bed, I woke to something you said
         F                                                G
That it's better to have loved, yeah, it's better to have loved
     F                  C
As I drove, there was a chill in the breeze
          Am                G         F
And leaves tumbled from the sky and fell
     C  Cadd9         Am   A4
On a road so black as I backtracked
       F       G     C Cadd9 Am A4
To the Moonlight Motel

[Chorus]
       F                            C
She was boarded up and gone like an old summer song
Am             G     F
Nothing but an empty shell
  C    Cadd9                 Am   A4      F G C Cadd9
I pulled in and stopped into my old spot

[Otro]
           F                       C
I pulled a bottle of Jack out of a paper bag
               Am             G      F
Poured one for me and one for you as well
            C  Cadd9                          Am      A4
Then it was one more shot poured out onto the parking lot
       F       G     C Cadd9 Am A4 F G C
To the Moonlight Motel
