[Intro]
Okay, it's an old time country western: Blue Moon of Kentucky!

Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, it was on a moonlight night
The stars were shining bright
And they whispered from on high
Your love has said good-bye

Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Well, shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Shine on, blue moon

Well, it was on a moonlight night
The stars were shining bright
Wind blowing high, and my love said good-bye

Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Shine on

Well, it was on a moonlight night
The stars were shining bright
Wind blowing high
My love said good-bye

Well, blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
Yeah, shine on, blue

Paul McCartney and Wings, also known simply as Wings, were an Anglo-American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle Paul McCartney with his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for frequent personnel changes as well as commercial success, going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group’s existence until 1981.
