Lyrics:

(Bb)Come and look out through the window
That big old moon is shinin' (C) down
Tell me now don't it remind (F) you
Of a blanket on the (Bb) ground

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

(Bb)I'll get the blanket from the (Eb) bedroom
And we'll go walkin' 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't mean we can't slip (Bb) around
So let's 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't 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'd (G7) love me
On a blanket on the (C) ground

(Bb)I'll get the blanket from the (Eb) bedroom
And we'll go walkin' 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't mean we can't slip (Bb) around
So let's walk out through the (F) moonlight
And lay the blanket on the (Bb) ground

Close by humming the melody,
gradually fade out
