(Bb)Come and look out through the window
That big old moon is shinin&9 (C) down
Tell me now don&9t it remind (F) you
Of a blanket on the (Bb) ground

(Bb)Remember back when love first found us
We&9d go slippin&9 out of (C)town
And we&9d love beneath the (F)moonlight
On a blanket on the (Bb) ground

(Bb)I&9ll get the blanket from the (Eb) bedroom
And we&9ll go walkin&9 once (Bb) again
To that spot down by the (F) river
Where our sweet love first (Bb) began

(Bb)Just because we are (Eb) married
Don&9t mean we can&9t slip (Bb) around
So let&9s walk out through the (F) moonlight
And lay the blanket on the (Bb) ground

Modulate to C

(C)Oh remember how excited
We used to get when love was (D) young
That old moon was our best (G7) buddy
We couldn&9t wait for night to (C) come

Now you know you still excite me
I know you love me like I (D) am
Just once more I wish you&9d (G7) love me
On a blanket on the (C) ground

(Bb)I&9ll get the blanket from the (Eb) bedroom
And we&9ll go walkin&9 once (Bb) again
To that spot down by the (F) river
Where our sweet love first (Bb) began

(Bb)Just because we are (Eb) married
Don&9t mean we can&9t slip (Bb) around
So let&9s walk out through the (F) moonlight
And lay the blanket on the (Bb) ground

Close by humming the melody,
gradually fade out
