SHINE ON HARVEST MOON
By: Nora Bayes & Jack Norworth
Liza Minnelli
Key: F

-7   -7    7*  -7   7* -7
The night was might-y dark 
7* -7    7*   -7  -6 -5
So you could hard-ly see 
-5   6   -6  -7  -6   -5  -7
For the moon re-fused to shine 
-7   7* -7   7*  -7  7*  -7
Cou-ple sit-ting un-der-neath 
7* -7 -6   -5
a wil-low tree 
-7   7     -7   7
For love they pine 
-7* -7   -7* -7  -7* -7  -7*  -7  -7*  7 
Lit-tle maid was kind a-fraid of dark-ness 
-5  6   -6   5  -6    -7  8
So she said "I guess I'll go." 
 7  -7 -8  7   -7     7    -7 -8  7  -7
Boy be-gan to sigh, looked up at the sky 
 -7   7*  -7  -7* -8  -7*  -8  7   8 
Told the moon his lit-tle tale of woe 


CHORUS 
-7  -7*  -7   -7*  -7 -6*  -5   -4
Oh shine on, shine on har-vest moon 
-3*-4 -7   7
Up in the sky 
-7  7   -7  7   8  -7
I ain't had no lov-in' 
  7   -6 -5 5 -5  -6  -5 5  -5
Since Jan-u-ar-y, Feb-ru-ar-y 
 -6  -5 5  -6
June or Ju-ly 

 -7*  -7   -7*  -7  -6* -5  -4
Snow time ain't no time to stay 
-3*   -4  -7    7
out-doors and spoon 
7   -7   7
So shine on 
 -7   7   8   -7   -6   5  -5  5  -5 -6
Shine on har-vest moon for me and my gal 

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 2 

I can’t see why the boy should sigh, 
When by his side is the girl he loves so true 
All he has to say is, 
“Won’t you be my bride?” 
For I love you 
Why should I be telling you this secret 
When I know that you can guess? 
Harvest moon will smile 
Shine on all the while, 
If the little girl should answer “Yes”
