Kris Delmhorst - Lullaby 101
INTRO: G
D/F# C G
Sleep you little soldier boy
D/F# C
With your ear against the wall
G D/F# C G
You have held that rifle all of your life
D G
Now it's time to let it fall
D/F# C G
Sleep you little alibi
D/F# C
With your reasons in a row
G D/F# C G
You have turned in circles all of your life
D G
Just so your shadow wouldn't show
CHORUS:
D G D G
Dream with me, dream with me
Am G D/F#
We'll wake in better days
G D/F# C
And we'll build a boat and we'll hope that it floats
G D G
We will sail, we'll sail away
D/F# C G
And now, sleep you little résumé
D/F# C
With your head above the crowd
G D/F# C G
You have held your breath in all of your life
D G
Just to make somebody proud
D/F# C G
Oh now, sleep you little reservoir
D/F# C
Let your banks just over-flow
G D/F# C G
No, you can't contain all of that rain
D G
You're gonna have to let it go
CHORUS:
D G D G
Dream with me, dream with me
Am G D/F#
We'll wake in better light
G D/F# C
And until we rise with open eyes
G D G
Goodnight, my love, goodnight
D/F# C
Yes, until some sun wakes everyone
G D C
Goodnight, my love, goodnight
G
Goodnight
