The Sun and the moon

Has anyone got guitar tabs for this song I've been trying to work it out but its not going very well. My search for tabs on the internet was equally as unsuccesful. Might as well share opinions on the track now that theres a topic for it. Its one of my favourites from Pogue Mahone.

as far as I tried to find out a few years ago
I really liked that one and still do, in fact full of melancholy, being the last song on their last album

intro
G C D
G C D
G C D Em C

G
The snakes they can crawl
C
And the cheetahs they can bawl
G D
And* their ghosts can wait for the hereafter
G
But if you are so proud
C
As to say that's not allowed
G D G
We will get sick and choke ourselves with laughter

D
refr:
And the girlfriends that you knew
G
To whom you promised to be true
D
We'll have their sisters
Em
Hanging from the rafters
G C
And every dirty shade will rise rotting from the grave
G D G
Tomorrow will be just like the day after

D
And this bitter desert wind
G
Will come ripping through your skin
D Em
And everything that's calm will turn to madness
G
And all of your fake tears
C
Will come whirling down the years
G D G
And what was kind and warm will come to sadness

bridge: D G D Em G C G D G

Em
And the sun and the moon
D
Will come begging at your door
Em
The stars will turn to rust
C
And drop** from the skies
G C
And everybody will soon*** be asking you for more
G D G
And everybody will be telling lies


refr:
And the girlfriends that you knew
To whom you promised to be true
We'll have their sisters
Hanging from the rafters
And every dirty shade will rise rotting from the grave
Tomorrow will be just like the day after
G D G Em
Tomorrow will be just like the day after
G D G
Tomorrow will be just like the day after

* but(?)
** fall
*** sung: ... soon will be asking...

I love that song.

I love this song as well, in fact i even have a garden ornament that i purchased last year, and it sits in my rock garden and it is a display of the "Sun and the Moon", when seeing it of course i just had to have it for the reasons of my love for this song??

Thanks ephoniumdude. Fortunately I seem to have worked it out the right way in the mean time. Seems the same anyway. I just love the change into Em in this song. It really flows very well. alot of songs from Pogue Mahone seem to do that. Great to sit down and play by yourself (and a guitar obviously).
