VERSE 1
********
                    Am                     C
When I was young, I spoke like a child and
                   G/B  D  G
Saw with a child's eyes
                     Am             C
And an open door was to a girl like
                     D      Em
The stars are to the skies

VERSE 2
********
           C       Bm7         Em
It's funny how the world lives up to
C       G/B   D        Am
All your expectations
                        G/B
With adventures for the stout of heart
        C                    D    G
And the lure of the open spaces


E|E|---------------||-------
VERSE 3
********
                          Am             C
There's two lanes running down this road
                           G/B  D  G
And whichever side you're on
                       Am          C
Accounts for where you want to go
                           D  Em
Or what you are running from
         C         Bm7      Em
Back when darkness overtook me
C    G/B        Am
On a blindman's curve

CHORUS
*******
    G     Am      D
I relied upon the moon
    G     Am      D
I relied upon the moon
    G     Am      D            G           Am  D
I relied upon the moon and St. Christopher

VERSE 4
********
                             Am
Now I've paid my dues 'cause I have owed them
        C                 G/B   D  G
But I've paid a price sometimes
                 Am              C
For being such a stubborn woman
                 D      Em
In such stubborn times


E|E|---------------||-------
VERSE 5
********
       C            Bm7     Em
I have run from the arms of lovers
C      G/B          D       Am
I have run from the eyes of friends
                    G/B
I have run from the hands of kindness
C                 D             G
I have run just because I can


E|E|---------------||-------
VERSE 6
********
                         Am
But now I've grown and I speak like a woman
     C                      G/B  D  G
And I see with a woman's eyes
                    Am
And an open door is to me now
    C                   D      Em
Like the saddest of goodbyes
               C        Bm7     Em
Well, it's too late for turning back
    C              G/B           Am      D
And I pray for the heart and the nerve

I relied upon the moon
    G     Am      D            G           Am  D
I relied upon the moon and St. Christopher

    G     Am      D
I relied upon the moon
    G     Am      D
I relied upon the moon
    G     Am      D            C            Em
I relied upon the moon and St. Christopher
         Am      G
To be my guide
