                                                      (Lost in a lullaby...)

I'm not sure if these chords are 100% accurate as the guitar is quite quiet, but its goo enough. Em Lost in a lullaby Am Side of the road Em Melt in a memory Am Slide into solitude C Not till I can read by the moon Em I'm not going anywhere C Bm Not till I can read by the moon
