C7
Hush now my little baby

F
Time to sleep, Time to forget everything

C7
Hush now my little baby

F
Time to sleep, it's the safest place to be

C7                          F
And may the years carry you gently

        C7                      F
May the wonder never leave your heart

        C7                          F
May the colours of the darkness not scare you

            C7                       F
And may the sound of my voice always hold you

C7           F
Long after I can't

C7           F      C7   F
Long after I can't

C7
Wake now my little darling

F
Time to see, Time to begin everything

C7
Up now my little darling

F                                         C7
Time to see all the things this world can be

                                F
But how I hope some things stay hidden

           C7                          F
Until your sweet heart has strength to see

      C7                                F
For below all these soft clouds there's darkness

      C7                      F
And a poison that looks oh so sweet

C7                F
Oh, stay close to me

          C7                        F
Won't you always stay this close to me

C7   F   C7   F   C7   F   C7   F
(Vocalisations, on Ah then oo)

C7
Come now my little grown boy

F
Let me see you, Tell me about everything

C7
Come now my little grown boy

  F                                         C7
I know you're strong but today it seems I'm not

                              F
For the world feels like it's running

        C7                      F
And I'm back here, two feet in mud

          C7                           F
Can you believe I once thought I'd protect you?

                         C7                   F
When the truth is you're stronger than I ever was

C7                F
You're my son, my moon

                            C7                     F
Won't you promise me you'll come back and visit me again soon

C7    F      C7     F      C7     F      C7    F
  Ah..   Ah..   Ah......      Ah..   Ah...........
