Dancing in the Moonlight

King Harvest

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Verse 2

Everybody here is out of sight

They don't bark, and they don't bite

They keep things loose, they keep things light

Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight

Chorus

(same chords as verse; different melody)

Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight

Everybody's feelin' warm and right

It's such a fine and natural sight

Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight

Verse 3

We like our fun and we never fight

You can't dance and stay uptight

It's a supernatural delight

Everybody was dancin' in the moonlight

Guitar solo 2

They don't bark, and they don't bite

They keep things loose, they keep things light

Chorus

Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight

Everybody's feelin' warm and right

It's such a fine and natural sight

Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight
