You're fishing for "Earth and Moon", but your outlook on the whole matter seriously

needs broadening.

-- In the case of tides on the Earth, the Sun has almost as much influence on them

as the Moon has.

-- In principle, every two celestial bodies are responsible for raising tides on each other,

as the result of the mutual forces of gravitational attraction between them.

There is ONE force that produces tides, and that is gravitation. Specifically, tides on Earth (for example) are caused by the fact that the gravitational force by the Moon on one side of the Earth (the side that is closer to the Moon) is stronger than the force on the other side. Similarly with the gravitation by the Sun, though the effect is smaller in this case.
