Verse 1

         D                      G
A silver moon was shining on an old Kentucky home
       A7                             D
The fragrance of magnolias filled the air
                                      G
A lonely girl was writing to her sweetheart across the sea
    A7                            D
May God protect you darling, over there

Chorus

       D                      A7
Silver dew on the bluegrass tonight
                                        D
How it shines through a ray of pale moonlight
Soldier boy so far from me,
           G
Close your eyes and you will see
       A7                     D
Silver dew on the bluegrass tonight
