DO MI7 LAm7 MIm7
Two hearts throwing off sparks
FAmaj7 REm7 FA SOL
Young and in love with our freedom
DO MI7 LAm7 RE7
Moonlight, those soft summer nights
FA SOL4 SOL DO
We were both ripe to fall
DO MI7 LAm7 MIm7
I was out on my own
FAmaj7 REm7 FA SOL
Playing for all who would listen
DO MI7 LAm7 RE7
You were as free as a bird
FA SOL4 SOL DO
flying from nest to nest
DO DO/SI
LAm7 MIm7
But somewhere our eyes met
FAmaj7
And our hands reached out
REm7 SOL4 SOL
and we felt a kindred spirit
LAm7 MIm7
And as our faces touched
FAmaj7
I could feel the fire
REm7 SOL4 SOL
And needed so to just be near it
DO MI7 LAm7 MIm7
Oh Lord, those moments we soared
FAmaj7 REm7 FA SOL
Borne on the wings of our passion
DO MI7 LAm7 RE7
It seemed then like they'd never end
FA SOL4 SOL DO
But times like that always must
DO DO/SI
LAm7 MIm7
'cause then one day I flew
FAmaj7
far away from you
REm7 SOL4 SOL
I never knew how I'd regret it
LAm7 MIm7
My sweet Magnolia belle
FAmaj7
You know I loved you well
REm7 SOL4 SOL
Even if I never said it
[Instrumental verse]
LAm7 MIm7
Magnolia, now I see
FAmaj7
that freedom isn't free
REm7 SOL4 SOL
and love's the only true redeemer
LAm7 MIm7
And when this journey's through
FAmaj7
I'll be coming home for you
REm7 SOL4 SOL
If you'll have this foolish dreamer
DO MI7 LAm7 MIm7
I spend a night now and then
FAmaj7 REm7 FA SOL
Passing through town on my travels
DO MI7
But someday,
LAm7 RE7
I'm gonna come back to stay
FA SOL4 SOL DO
Magnolia, I'm coming home.
