Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes
Gonna warm my bones, gonna warm my bones
I got silence on my radio
Let the air waves flow, let the air waves flow

Oh, I'm sleeping under strange, strange skies
Just another mad, mad day on the road
My dreams is fading down the railway line
C G
I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road, yeah
**BREAK:
C G
I'm hiding sister, and I'm dreaming

I'm riding down your moonlight mile

I'm riding down your moonlight mile

I'm riding down your moonlight mile

| Ok. This song is maybe the most beautiful song in the world by probably the best band in the world. It's so aesthetic, and when Mick says "When the wind blows" and Charlie hits that ride cymbal for a steady moment, that's the wind blowing right there. That's so creative. And his work on the toms blows me away. This song just puts me in a damn great mood. It's just so damn nice. soothing.. | |

| It's about anal sex and doing coke (and I don't mean coca-cola either!!) at the same time: "head full of snow"..."riding down your moonlight mile"...the arrangements by Jack Nietzche are mind-blowing...a great song to close out an AMAZING album!! | |

| This song is about being on the road and masterbating while thinking of your girl back home instead of dragging some skanky ho back to your hotel room. Way romantic! Mick's ah, sound effects are just priceless! As masterbation songs go, even better than Green Day's "All By Myself" and "Longview". I'm hiding sister and I'm dreaming I'm riding down your moonlight mile I'm hiding sister and I'm dreaming I'm riding down your moonlight mile There I go now coming home now baby Yeah, there I go now coming home now baby | |

| Charlie Watts cymbal work, the piano and the the guitar solo at the end (not Richards, btw) are all amazing. Probably my favorite Stones song. I never thought about the masturbation aspect of it, but it kind of takes away from my romanticized view of the song so I don't think it's something i'll consider too strongly. | |
