Gmaj9                 Gmaj9
Listen to the song he sings

Gmaj9                   Am9/G      Am9/G   Gmaj9    Gmaj9
Can't you see his music brings her crystal sleep?

Gmaj9                Gmaj9
As her heavy eyelids fall

     Gmaj9                   Am9/G          D/F#
He's taking her to where the dolls rule the world
[Part 2]
    Em7             A7
And in that land of make believe

   Am7               D11 Gmaj9      Gmaj9
Is where he'll leave her sleeping

Gmaj9       Am7/G                   Gmaj9     Gmaj9
Softly warm       in a crystal lullaby
[Part 3]
     Gmaj9               Gmaj9
He's weaving her a paper castle

      Gmaj9                       Am9/G   Gmaj9      Gmaj9
Where dancing clowns with tassels made of fur

Gmaj9                  Gmaj9
Welcome her into their world

     Gmaj9                      Am9/G        D      Am7/E  D
That lives inside the dreams of every little girl
[Part 4]
      Em7          A7
She's guarded by a brave tin soldier

Am7            D7  Gmaj9      Gmaj9
    Sitting on her shoulder

Gmaj9       Am7/G                  Gmaj9     Gmaj9   Amaj9      Amaj9
Taken there      in a crystal lullabyyyyyyyyyyyyyy - yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
[Part 5] (Key Change to A)
Amaj9                   Amaj9
Sometimes when I listen to

    Amaj9                    Bm7/A       Amaj9        Amaj9
The velvet song that fills a summer afternoon

Amaj9                    Amaj9
Something deep within me sighs

    Amaj9                   Bm7/A            E/G#   Bm7/F#  E
And wishes for the peaceful skies of long ag-o
[Part 6]
     F#m7                B7             F#m7    B7                     B7          Aadd9/E
That wrapped my cares in silver air and carried them away -ay -ay -ay -ay, leaving me

E                    Amaj9        Amaj9
  and a crystal lullaby
