Song : DANCING WITH THE MOONLIGHT KNIGHT
Band : GENESIS
Album : SELLING ENGLAND BY THE POUNDS
Transcripted by Raphaël Chaize
the song was originally transcripted by Maurizio Tiziano Moretto, but
the tonality and little details were not right. Here is my humble
correction. Maybe one day I will pursue the weird stuff that follows the
song.
"Can you tell me where my coutry lies?"
Said the unifaun to his true love's eyes
"It (C#m)lies with me" cried the (G#m)queen of maybe
For her (C#m)merchandise he (A)traded in his (C#m)prize (G#m) (A)

(C#m)You know what you (G#m)are

(C#m)Bursting your (G#m)belt that is your (Amaj7)home-made (B)sham

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official GENESIS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
