LULLABYE

Intro: C-F-C

C      F     G                CFC
Goodnight, goodnight, sweet baby
        F          E/F          D/F
The world has more for you

 (I mean here that you hold the F chord on top as you move the bass down to E then D.)
                G            F/G         E/G   D
Than it seems, goodnight, goodnight
    C          F        G       F     C(F)C
Let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams
we took a small flight
in the middle of the night
from one tiny place to another
and my parents they remained
at the shack with lorraine
and my aunt and my grandpa and brother

Bridge:
        Am               Ab*(?)               Am       F#/D Ab*: 
We walked past the tarmac and boarded the craft
       G              F/G              E/G    D
The rain had me chilled to the bone
just the three of us took flight that night,
uncle richard, me and james earl jones
and the pilot he gave me a blanket
while the tall dark man sang to me in deep rich tones...

Instrumental (You're on your own there, pal)

The world has more for you

                G            F/G         E/G   D
Than it seems, goodnight, goodnight

Let the moonlight take the lid off your dreams
