Em7
Come a little bit closer
                   | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
Hear what I have to say
Em7
Just like children sleepin'
                          | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
We could dream this night away
G6
But there's a full moon risin'
                        | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
Let's go dancin' in the light
G6
We know where the music's playin'
                          | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
Let's go out and feel the night
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        A7sus4                          A7
        Because I'm still in love with you
                                A7sus4
        I wanna see you dance again
                                       A
        Because I'm still in love with you
                        [ D ]
        On this harvest moon

[Verse 2]
 
Em7
When we were strangers
                   | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
I watched you from afar
Em7
And when we were lovers
                         | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
I loved you with all my heart
G6
But now it's gettin' late
                          | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
And the moon is climbin' high
G6
I want to celebrate
                      | D D6 | Dmaj7 | D D6 | Dmaj7 |
See it shinin' in your eye
 
 
[Chorus]
 
        A7sus4                          A7
        Because I'm still in love with you

        I wanna see you dance again
                                       A
        Because I'm still in love with you

Don't know what all the fuss is about. Didn't drop any tuning, just played it, along with the record,as written, sounded spot on to me. Good tab well done, thanks.
