  Dm            Gm         Gmaj7              D               Gm Dm Gm G D  G D
I hear that the emperor of China used to wear iron shoes with ease
Dm                        Gm       G                                   Gm     D
We are the tablecloth and also the table also the fable of the dancing leaves


[Chorus]

D       A         D                   A
The new moon is rising the axe of the thunder is broken
   D
As never was, not since the flood nor yet since the world began
    A
The new moon is shining, the angels are washing their windows
 D                                                   G D
Above the years whose jumble sale goes spinning on below
Dm7             G7               Dm7             G7
Ask the snail beneath the stone, ask the stone beneath the wall
G         D
Are there any stars at all
G                         Gm         Dm     Gm   D
Like an eagle in the sky, tell me if air is strong


[Interlude]

[Verse 2]

       Dm                     Gm D Dm      D         G D
In the floating pan pipe victories  of the golden harvest
                        Dm     G D
Safe in the care of the dear moon


[Chorus]

D               A
The new moon is rising the eyelid of god is approaching
    D
The humane train the skating raining travelling voice of certainty
                A                                               D
The new moon is shining the harmonious hand is now holding Lord Krishna's ring
D
The eagle's wing the voice of mother everything
Dm                                               G
Ask the snail beneath the stone, ask the stone beneath the wall
          D
Are there any stars at all
G                         Gm         Dm     Gm  D
Like an eagle in the sky, tell me if air is strong


[Outro]

Dm
In the floating palaces of the spinning castle
        D                          Gm           D    Dm
May the fire king's daughter bring water to you
