Moondance Chords by Van Morrison, www.Ultimate-Guitar.Com This is a great version of this song that I found . . . somewhere. I can't remember where I got this, but it's rather accurate.

The way he sings on the album is DO-ME-SI-ME, so the C7 chord that is added adds the SI to sing along with. I think it sounds better because it rings with your voice. If you're teaching this to someone, it'll also help them sound the tune more clearly before they sing. (for those of you who are solfege impared, this means 1-3-7-1)A nylon string guitar and alternating lyrics between a guy and girl make this into a great tune. Harmony can be done over the chorus up a 3rd. If anyone can play a flute or recorder or any wind instrument over this, it makes for a great accompianment. Finger pick it and let the chords ring.
