As I was saying this is a tribute to the very first version of this song debuted on a Daytrotter Session
on the 1st of march 2012. Please keep it as it is and if you fancy go on and make another version to this tab
instead of editing this one thank you.

A E B7 C#m
E G#m A E
[Verse]
E C#m A E
Come let's be gentle, be soft in my arms
B7 F#m A C#m
There's moonstorms been brewing and grain in the barns
A E B7 C#m
Your mother is sleeping, I'll play my guitar
E C#m A E
The twilight is keeping us close to the stars
E C#m A E
Here's where the stories live, here with the peace
B7 F#m A C#m
Oh the kindly ol' night wrapped warm in her fleece
A E B7 C#m
Oh dream up a hot day, oh dream and be full
E B7 C#m A
Of Orion, his bow, the Plough and the Bull
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) B7
Oh, my darling
[Verse]
E C#m A E
Go trust in their strength for these are your friends
B7 F#m A C#m
And pledge in them now for their love knows no end
A E B7 C#m
The bull looks a meanie but he's on your side
E C#m A E
And he pulls the plough which comes and divides
E C#m A E
Put space in the heavens, Einstein's idea
B7 F#m A C#m
And he's your friend too, so nothing to fear
A E B7 C#m
Orion'll help there, his darts find the dark
E B7 C#m A
And all you need do is watch for his mark
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) B7
Oh, my darling
[Verse]
E C#m A E
The suns and the moons and the galaxies far
B7 F#m A C#m
Were cast from his bow before they were stars
A E B7 C#m
Oh and the gap in-between them is nothing to us
E C#m A E
Our eyes cut the distance as loving eyes must
E C#m A E
From me unto you son from dust unto dust
[Chorus]
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) F#m
Oh, my darling
E
Oh, my darling
A C#m
Oh, my darling
A E
Oh, my darling
A (G#m) B7
Oh, my darling
