Chords with lyrics

A minorAm  DmDm     A minorAm
Shadows slowly creeping

A minorAm    DmDm     A minorAm
Down the prairie's trail,

A minorAm  DmDm    A minorAm
Everything is sleeping

G+G      G#G#  G+G
All but the nightingale.

A minorAm     DmDm   A minorAm
Moon will soon be climbing

A minorAm    E MajorE  A minorAm
In the purple sky,

A minorAm     DmDm  A minorAm
Night wind softly humming

    G+G  E MajorE  A minorAm G7G7
This tender lullaby.

CHORUS
C majorC           C7C7
Cares of the day have fled,

C7C7     FF
My little sleepyhead.

C majorC       G7G7  C majorC
The stars are in the sky.

C majorC              C7C7
Time that your prayers were said,

My little sleepyhead.

To a prairie lullaby.

Saddle up your pony.

The sandman's here

To guide you down the trail of dreams.

Tumble in bed, my child,

You old sleepyhead,
    C majorC   G7G7  C majorC
To a prairie lullaby.
